i had my corsa done a couple of years ago, yeah it was only a corsa but it was my pride and joy, the worst of it was that it was done in the cosworth racing car park whilst my husband was using the car for work........the annoying bit is he probably works with the arse how did this and is none...

Could just be cheap and nasty pads, i spotted a small bt of fade in my 16v a while back but i was really pushing it, but i dont think the pads on johnny are the best quality ever.........generally clio brakes are great..........well so him in doors says
chuckie

Chuckie
Why the hell would anyone want to do that to their car??? There is a time and a place for carbon fibre, and that is not one of them................i cant imagine that looking good on anything.......
