If this is a pukka deal then, very cheap,calipers will just need painting.  Although carriers don't seem to be included?

I have had a proper look at the deal and unfortunately there are a couple of problems, firstly the carriers are definitely not included so if upgrading they would need to be sourced.  While not a major issue, what could be a problem is the fact they add 20% as a surcharge which is refunded when they receive your old calipers, so not really any good from an upgrade point of view...... :sad1:
