He's quoted me £350 supplied and fitted  for the Autotech internals :happy2: @mitchh

I've got a Airtec front mount fitted already so should be alright on that front dude!

In prep for vwfestival next week and generally just cause they needed it I decided to refurb my brakes!
It was a bit of an after thought as originally I wanted to change my brake fluid, it's never been done in the years I've had it so thought I best get it done.

So first up I flushed 2 litres of fluid through and then set about sanding and prepping everything! Gave the calipers a good scrub and got rid of all loose crud!
Painted the calipers in red enamel and the disc bells, edges and shields in heatproof satin black. All I need to do to finish the job is put my new decals up front. All in all they look miles tidier

The attention to detail by placing all of your locknuts on their end in piles at each wheel is  :happy2:

Too often people ram their impact gun through the bolts and drop them where they land leaving you foraging when putting them back on!

Cheers dude!

You could always give em a brush over when there fitted up? I got this enamel from a local car boot and it worked really well! Enamel paint works well just gotta be confident as it goes tacky quick and build layers to avoid runs  :happy2:

"Never noticed it before but yeah I'm quite OCDish"

Two axle stands and two trolley jacks   :stupid:

PLEASE... Splash out on another pair of axle stands buddy _ this sort of lash up makes me wince!

At least put your wheels under the car....

Hey at least it was matching axle stands front and jacks at the back!  :grin:

And don't worry I put 2 axle stands under the rear arms, unless I've missed it over the years, but you can't put jacks and stands in the same place on the sills so there has to be an order it's done in. This pic was just taken last min before the car came down  :happy2:
