well im trying to keep the car to a theme of blue, black and alloy colours
so hence the blue/black powder coated calipers

i did have the pair of the red powder coated ones too but ive since sold them to a mate for $200 with new pads and new disc

personally i like the blue ones better, but that might just be me and liking blue

finally got my alternator back together, was a bit slack for a while




a little paint update
had a new company install there system at work and got talking to the sales rep.
he was going to help me out big time with getting all the paint cheap and possibly the clear free,
but after looking at the paint quality on a few jobs i desided that the clear just wasnt good enough.
eventhough i could get it free, i want bassically the best of the best in finish
so ive desided just to stick with PPG
