Hammerite, £5 Halfords, wheels off, sand, paint, jobs a goodun.

be a lot cheeper than professional places, and lets face it, if the finish isn't amazing when you do it, is any one going to really notice? nope...

one of my mates bought some brembos and it came with the option of them coming painted, one of my other mates painted his with hammerite, unless you get right up close and look you wouldn't tell the difference

They came back with £200 if they have them before the 11th.  Thats for a set of 6 pots and a rear Anni set up.  I dot think its right so going to ring them on Mon. 

Most of the other places I emailed where looking £200 alone of the 6 pots.
