Little Cleaning

wildwestm3 · 01-17-2015, 05:16 PM

I decided to clean the brakes and fix some curb rash on the wheel today. I'll post pics of the wheel when done. Am I the only one that misses the car so much in the Winter that I invent things to do? LOL

Looks great! I should do this. I'm thinking SSII caliper paint

What is winter? We track all year here.

No paint. Stock caliper cleaned with brake cleaner and WD-40! Got the M decals off of eBay. Idea was from another forum member...

Back together:

Hopefully my red/black roundels will be in this week. I got the whole set, wheels, hood, trunk and steering wheel...

Even more impressive! Of all the nooks and crannies I've obsessively cleaned on mine, I can't believe I haven't attempted to detail the brake calipers. I'm installing a set of Swift springs soon so I'll have to tackle this when the wheels come off again. Good stuff, thanks.
