and did u use a spray can or a brush?

[kniterider]

So you just painted what you could see? Sounds easy I want to do mine, but was a bit worried about taking bits off then not being able to put em back on again.....

i'm gonna try do mine properly (and clean my alloys nicely at same time)

[Speedydub]

ooo...gonna put me blue lights on at the weekend too

[kniterider]

cleaned my wheels big time when i did mine, painted mine all over (except pads!! lol) the only bit i couldnt to was where the caliper fits to the hub carrier, but youl never see this, and if ever i do take the caliper off proper ill do again, but didnt fancey bleedin the system at each caliper etc!!
