Hi,

I have joined the forum today, I have an MGTF Stepspeed and I am thinking about spraying the brake calipers, what do you think would be the best colour to spray them?

My car is silver and has a blue roof?

Any suggestions??

Hiya and welcome to the T Bar, hope you enjoy our new site as much as we do :)

As for your calipers, well.... Are the wheels silver?

No problem :)

Right you have a few options I guess, blue would go with your hood, but, I think that red calipers look nice..
Although saying that mine have been purple and are now green.. Hey its an easy job to do lol....

Hi General, welcome to the forum.

I would go for powder blue. I have painted my rears this colour and will do the fronts when I get round to it.

When I purchased my car there was no hand book for the step speed.

I can see there is a lever to adjust the steering wheel but I can't get it to move. Either I am pulling it or pushing it the wrong way or it is stuck

Does anyone know where I can get an old hand book at all so I can see how to work these types of things?

Thanks

The General:confused::confused:

:welcome2:
You'll find that the lever to alter the steering wheel pushes down towards the floor.

Glad you like it mate.

The paint I used was Halfords caliper paint.
