unfortunaley i couldnt get yellow caliper paint yesterday or they would have been done to:eek:ut: yes ive fliped it lol
 
cheers paul iam going to give it all a few coats of clear laquer once ive painted everything, i used a zinc primer to prevent rusting and just a basic black satin top coat,iam practising on this car if it turns out good i will do my blurple one too.will need to goto another halford to get my yellow caliper paint though as i want it in a spray can,will be better to get into all the nooks and crannies and the springs are powder coated
 
cheers jamie and thats a 10 year old strut and spring scrub well along with the hub carrier once the caliper is done the front subframe will be getting same treatment
 
well what can i say after using a electric sander wire brush drill attachments the hub and strut were easy just dont the caliper and slider a tad bit more difficult just need to paint them now
 
its only a rug to protect my solid wood flooring lol and anyway i do the housework but just not today lol
