caliper painting help...

[MCG]

I'm going to get the calipers on my 182 painted red, does it look best just getting the front 2 painted or is it better to get the rear ones done as well?

The 1.2 16v has rear drum brakes so you could only have painted your front ones!

I want what people have done on 172's and 182's, not 1.2's.

Paint both back and front red , if you don't like how it looks paint the back black . Hammerite smooth is all you need .
