    Default Painted calipers

    Have spent the weekend with the wheels off sorting the calipers out and after three coats of hammerite I think the result is a whole lot better. Went in the end for the Smooth Red finish and the White VX decals. Also started to debadge the rear as well but will need another session to complete this and the side panels. Where does the weekend go flown past again.
