And he still found time to help me with my EVOMS cover 'project'  :drinking:

Glad to hear you got the brakes finished - I wouldn't have wanted to hold you up.

I got pulled by the Police on the way home! (In Random Chat).

The glue is amaaaaazing! Methinks it's stronger than the alu (or "tin" as you call it).

Step 2 today.. Glue set overnight.. Fitting and pics tomorrow, unless my studio session goes on all day, then it'll be new HowTo improve an EVOMS cover thread (excluding repair details).

Re your gt28, methinks that Ray West is a good option - Ticks a lot of boxes. Nothing against APR, they have good products, but long distance relationships are nearly always tricky.

Looking great!  :congrats:

But, more importantly, delivering the braking balance you prefer.

Having seen your car yesterday, I must say that those CH's look perfect as they are - Just my opinion but I think you'd spoil them if finished in black.

If you're on a course for more track action with the Mk5, then consider some lighter weight wheels such as the new Team Dynamics (they do matt black) - Makes a difference you can feel. Spare set of TD's with track rubber and keep the CH's perhaps because they look very smart indeed.
