Update

Painted my F20, looks fantastic





Also due to me receiving my new Faulkner rear springs I decided to properly refurbish my rear coilovers.

Taken off car and stripped down, they were in a state after just 2 months, copper grease just doesn't cut it.



After I good clean down and a wire wheeling session they looked much better



Then applied molycote to the threads, which is a water repellent anti friction coating. and built them back up



Finally (took them apart again) and painted all the other metal areas with silver hammerite



And fitted into my filthy wheel arches



As they came up so nice I'm currently doing the same to my front coilovers

They feel so much better on the new springs as well. Could see the old ones had collapsed by about 20mm!

Hopefully the molycote and hammerite should stand up to the inclement weather conditions we so often have to endure.
