Right, just waiting for the paint to dry on the brakes then im just gonna put it all back together and hope for best. I haven't broke the ABS sensor as I can see it slightly if i look behind the disk.
They also spin fine with the wheel on and they don't wobble either.

Brake fluid is coming from some where. Dunno wtf iv done or how iv done it. Way in over my head, should never have bothered attempting to work on it myself. So a £130 job has potentially turned into a fortune.

Right, all sorted and back together.
Went out and gave her a blast, had a traffic light grand prix moment with a really old impreza too
No wheel bearing noise to hear at 70mph+
No lights up on the dash
Handbrake holds a lot better than my old pads/disks did.
70mph+ to 0MPH Nearly rips your face off still.
I would say im okay!
