    RobDon's Ibiza Cupra

    Last few wee jobs on the Cupra. Brushed aluminium vent rings fitted, along with the gearshift surrounds too. Changed the wheel nut covers for the better looking VW ones. Don't know how but one of the rear light lenses got cracked, wasn't a big fan of them anyway, after seeing a couple of pics of...

    SEAT SPORT AP Racing calipers are finally back on! After sending them off to BCS to be fully refurbished, 2 weeks (they quoted 5-7 days turnaround but they said they had a lot of trouble with seized pins and bolts!) later I got them back. Today I got them back on. Turns out the original hoses...

    RobDon's Ibiza Cupra

    I thought I would put the stickers on to see what they looked like, they are only £7 for a set. The gunmetal paint is metallic and a little darker than the images show. Have to say I like it, will look good on a red car, a nice contrast. The stickers are high temp, same with the caliper...

    They are yes. I have gunmetal grey caliper paint so changing them to match the fronts is easy enough.

    Got the SEAT SPORT AP Racing 4-pot calipers back from being fully refurbished. Apparently everything on them was seized - pins, bolts, etc.! My question is ... do I spray them gloss red or leave them in this gunmetal grey? Given that my car is red, I thought the gunmetal grey might contrast the...

    Managed to find a set of AP Racing calipers, only set I could find anywhere. I've sent them off to be fully refurbished so they're like new. Getting an optional aviation polymer PTFE coating on them to prolong their appearance. http://www.brakecaliperspecialists.uk/ Overview of the car: fully...
