    Default Painting Calipers!

    Well as i write this ive already put one coat on the front calipers. Just got to wait 2 hours for them to sticky dry before i can do a final coat!

    Got pictures but unfortunatly im at my dads so cant take them off the camera but they will be up some time tonight!

    Only doing front ones at the mo as they take so long to dry and i only have 2 axel stands so backs will be done next weekend!
