Quick update: had a bit of time over the weekend so managed to paint the brake calipers
the actual painting part was easy enough but the prep time ended up resulting in it being a fairly lengthy job, well worth it in the end though cos I think the results look great!!
the Subaru embossed bit isn't perfect so am a little annoyed but you can only really tell from right up close so doesn't bother me toooo much...although I will probably end up doing a bit of touch up work on them when I get some extra time
lol
The contrast of the white behind the black rims is exactly what I was hoping for so am very pleased
and tonight my order will be going to Rob for a 1-piece STI front lip which should finish off my original 'vision' of the car quite nicely!
Happy days ahead!
p.s - I am aiming to make it down to Vastese bakery this Saturday so am looking forward to meeting some of you guys there!
