Cup with Calipers...CLEANED shocker! ;) No 56k



  Nippy white cup
Finally got round to taking some clean pics lol. The pics were all a bit dark so I lightened them but the wheels stayed the same...the side walls aren`t that light honest! I`m no photographer so no relly fancy shots I`m afraid :)

Thanks guys...not a prob Lewis...would look cool in red. I`m sooo glad I went for black wheels now. I like the anthracite but the black looks meaner IMO

Very nice - im in the process of refurbing my Turini's Black.


BTW... I painted my Elise's calipers yellow ...... within 1 day I painted them black..... They get awfully dirty and are a PITA to clean properly!

Is it just me or are those calipers on upside down?

On my cup, the thick bit is at the bottom of the caliper. :S I don't suppose it makes much difference to braking though. Are everyone else's like this?

I thought exactly the same. My mate made the same mistake on his Megane Coupe.

Cheers m8y. Any ideas about the calipers being dangerous put on that way? Doesn`t seem to have any braking probs but I`ve got a track day coming up and don`t fancy knackering my disks up.

I dont think it would be dangerous tbh, I'm not even sure what that bit's purpose is. Non RS's dont have it. It could be something to do with heat dissipation maybe? Might be worth asking Yoz or Fred to be sure.
