As promised Brilly, it's not quite finished, still a few hours in it yet. It will never look like those anodised ones as it's just 2k paint and laquer, but it really suits the car. Over all really happy with it so far.

Thanks for the tip Iain, already done it. thumb

Wish the portofino colour was available in anodise, because the finish on those two covers is just so in your face shiny laugh

let me get Marco's one's done so you can see how they turn out and we'll go from there Johnny .


I think I know what your implying here Iain.
Marco and Mario are ladyboys so you need a "real" testing platform for the longevity of this process.
I would happily be the guinea pig for such a gesture if we're on the same page laugh

Cheers Iain, I will check the store room and see what I have got.
My current ones are in a somewhat sorry state so it's another job to add to the list over the winter months.
If I have got some I will send them down with Mario when he picks his car up in another six months. laugh

Thanks Iain, thats something I probably would of forgot to do! The cap has finished it off nicely, so thanks for that too, I had being waiting for one to pop up for months, I've got to ask though, what are you using now? I've heard there's a new style alloy cap around, but I haven't seing one yet?

Iain it looks the nuts cant wait to see it in the flesh.
Iain did most of the work on this - boy its hard work.

You need to sand down the whole rocker cover then polish it befor annodizing it. Takes days/weeks to get it perfect.

Here is another pic he sent over today
Cant wait to get it on the car.

BTW JBT the yellow calipers are staying for the moment laugh Until i can be assed to do another set.
