    Painted My Calipers!! (Eventually)

    Try it next time? I have tried both ways in the past, just trying to pass on my experience. I used to purposefully spray my discs with high temp silver paint to help prevent corrosion, after 10-20miles the paint has all been rubbed off the braking surfaces with no lasting effects on pads or...

    Painted My Calipers!! (Eventually)

    Top tips from a lazy man. 1. No need for caliper paint, any auto paint will do (had standard halfords spray on my celica gt4 calipers with carbon/ceramic pads in with no problems).

    Black rings on the front grille

    I have a black edition with rotor wheels and am considering a halfway option and doing mine in Titan grey. Anyone got any pics of this while we are on the subject?Think black would be too much on an all black car.

    INSURANCE SAYS £1400 LABOUR IS TOO MUCH TO REPAIR THIS

    It's your insurance policy for your car! The insurance policy is to cover your car/parts like for like. Insist on genuine parts! And get it done where you want. This is what you pay all that money for every year.

    So ... this just happened

    If you do find an easy fix let me know, mine is that same. Previous owner must have had to jack the car at the road side using emergency jack. When I looked at it it looks like if the ground isn't level the threaded part of the jack can make contact with the sill.

    Has anyone blacked out headlights?

    Wondering if anyone has dissasembled and blacked out the headlights on a facelift with DRL/Bi-Xenon? Currently I have LaminX but think it may look better with all the chrome blacked out. If anyone has any pictures I would appreciate seeing them :)
