Before
This was the best looking of my calipers after the winter so, I decided that since it was a beautiful sunny day that I'd paint them all and do the hub centres at the same time.
Sadly, I forgot to take pictures of the "after" with the wheels off as, I was in such a rush to get them all done before it got bitter cold again.
After,
A big improvement I thought.
My son was walking past as I finished working on them and commented that he thought they looked great in silver and it really cleaned up the look of the car. He said he was pleased I hadn't gone down the route of painting them red or something, as he felt that would not have been in keeping with the look of the car.
Gob smacked to get such a nice compliment from him, lol.
