Hi

 

Does anyone know where I can get a top class repaint done on my F-Type callipers? The original Jag finish is very poor and let's the car down. I would need the calipers to be removed and replaced also.

 

Cheers.

I would recommend you ignore the brake calliper cleaner opting instead to have the callipers sand blasted. This brings them up like new before going off to get them painted.

 

What I chose to do on the SL500 AMG was to refurbish them following the sand blasting by powder coating, installing new rings and seals etc and they looked the business
