Do the calipers silver, black or even yellow, but imo dont go for gold.

 

[Clgale88]

You think yellow will look good then Cuz want them to stand ot over my turinis Where can i get yellow paint from good paint

 

[coatesy]

painting them looks gash

 

[JR]

personally mate i would do them silver or black but i am sure halfords do the yellow paint for calipers.

 

[Clgale88]

Why wouldnt you do them Gold wb cheers

 

[JR]

just looks a bit chavy imo, black or silver looks much more subtle

 

[Clgale88]

I think im going to do them Silver

 

[Spark]

[Clgale88]

The springs were fitted at the weekend The new 3/4 front number plate has arrived. My dads now in the process of preping the wheels ready for him to respray them hes also going to start preping the bumpers this week ready to paint so if all goes well will have her back at the end of the week fingers crossed will have pictures shortly.

 

[CupDude]

Are Apex springs not gonna completely destroy the handling?

 

[Clgale88]

Well some people say they do but iv heard some good comments from people who say they are good and they had as much fun with them as they did with there coilovers and iv had them on various cars there only stayin on the car untill about september october then ill buy my H&R coilovers.

 

[Gaz_]
