Looks good Paul. Yellow calipers on recent Porsches denote carbon ceramic discs, is there somethinng you'd like to tell us?

 

[pauldf1971]

wish i had those discs save me from going through them lol,with the car not getting used much the build up of rust on them soon kills them

I'd like to see how yellow calipers suits the car - so the view of both would be nice

Nice work paul. I think yellow calipers would look good with black, not on mine as I am aiming at a 'black and white photo' look, but they would look good. It's surprising how long a five minute job takes though eh?
