cheers mate

rear calipers are a bit small but i know what you mean will look better when i have my two tone alloys on.

Was easy to do mate. jacked it up front and back took the wheels off gave the calipers a good rub with a wire brush and sand paper. even had the electric sander out for a bit. sprayed with the cleaning agent then gave four coats of the caliper paint during the day. next day woke up stood back and enjoyed.

give it a go

yellow looks nice m8 i went for red but yellows a rare 1 and looks sweet!

need to re-do mine soon.... did them wen i got me new alloys in december but didnt do the best job cos the temp was too cold for the paint to bake on properly! it was about 2 degrees in me garage even with the heaters on it!!

 

[Tom_16v]

looks like youve done a good job.....

 

[Day]

I did mine Silver - looks much more original an un Brembo-like which they aint - lol

 

[Eskiisbest]

Thanks for the positives people

I think it looks good mate. Have you got a picture of the car further away, cos my mate is wanting to paint his calipers, and he has a silver Clio, the same mark as yours.

 

[Eskiisbest]

will try and get one but wont be today Im afraid.

I can tell you it looks sweet though

cheers
