A bit of a slow start to the project, but I had Tomnova16 paint up my brake callipers as they were chipped, pink and looking a bit tired:



Was going to have the wheels refurbished too, but I'm going to wait until the weather's a bit nicer first.

Where did you/tom get the decals from Ed? My calipers are in surprisingly good nick but the decals have just about worn away. Loads on ebay but wee things like that I like to have genuine if available.

Are they silver valve cover things standard fit? Had them on mine and binned them.

John: I'd assume so, they're fully metal/plated plastic valves. I've had them on a set of wheels on my Corsa before so it could just be that someone asked for them in the past.

Cheers for the comments too gents. Not too sure how interesting this project will be - the plans are just to tidy up the slightly tatty bits. The next thing is to get it over to Tom for the wheels, then it's going to Rich H for a bit of work :flamesuitbecauseimentioneddetailing:
