    • Previous owner painted calipers canary yellow, so I changed them to deep pearl blue on the weekend - Not screaming for attention anymore

      • Looks great Jeeren. Would be a challenge to do in that location though?

        I remember when Tom (previous owner) painted them yellow.

        • Good effort jeeren, I'm wanting to get around to do the same thing.. Any tips, hints? Do you need a specific paint to deal with the heat? How did you get the exact deep pearl blue colour? Thanks in advance

          • Thanks guys,
            Yeah it was rather challenging for a sunday.

            Roache I used the G2 brake caliper paint system LB5R 6X Deep Blue Pearl Audi Volkswagen Custom Color Match Brake Caliper Paint
            You detach the calipers and apply it with a brush. At first I wasn't convinced using a brush, but a guy from work had done it 6 months ago on a TT and they still were super glossy.

            My advice for blocking the car up is don't use the 'widow-maker' jack lol that thing is bad

            Put rear on blocks/jack stands first and front last, then take them off in that reverse order.
            I found it easier to use two jacks and slowly raise the height equally so the car doesn't lean or tip over OUCH

                        Thule store Botany, the roof racks and fairing were $441 with free shipping. I could of saved a few bucks buying the individual pieces from various places on the interwbz, but the guys were mega helpful and it arrived within 2 days so pretty stoked.

                          You need to do your own guard work like this:
