What did you and your MK2 do today?

[bendyb633]

Painted the brake calipers! Looks sweet now, but full brake overhaul in the summer!

 

[AndyG_TSi]

All those who have painted their brake calipers.....

Have you done it with the calipers in situ, or have you stripped them off the car, painted & refitted?

 

[AndrewJB]

When I painted my Ibiza and Leon FR ones I painted them on the car.

 

[Kylep943]

I've always painted them on the car when I've done it, just have to take your time and not throw paint everywhere lol

 

[bendyb633]

I painted mine in situ today, but come the summer, I'll strip the brakes down, new discs and pads, braided hoses and paint the calipers/carriers and dust shields off the car.

I'll let you know when I drive it. I smoke and am getting fed up of the seats and me being covered in fag ash whilst driving as the wind blows into the cabin something fierce, just off the wing mirrors.

Can recommend getting these deflectors, look smart and definitely help with the wind and rain intrusion into the cockpit

Cool. Thanks.

Moved my HID ballasts next to the headlights and hey presto no radio interfeirence. Unfortunately got another cracked windscreen

If only I had the money........... how much are you going to put it up for, around 14k?

 

[AndrewJB]

Unsure yet it will be fully modified apart from the brakes..

I don't know if I could part with mine for the mk3 lol. Will be interesting to see what you do with it tho.

I had new rear brake pads today and exhaust adjusted slightly.
Remap and lowering springs next on the list..

Anyone else wake up to find their car looking like this? Sand dust from sahara desert according to the news! Although dried shows how well it was beading!

My MR2 looked like this today and I thought it was a bit funny!

 

[STU3Y]

Ive never seen anything like it, I actually thought someone had done it deliberately, having seen me wash it a few hours earlier. Either way I wasnt pleased

 

[Craiglar]

I have this now
