Depends how much rust is on your car.. mine is fresh from japan and not a spec of rust so I just degressed, powerwashed, scrubbed all crud off the underneath(very little as dry weather weekend car) , I just removed the wxhaust system and brakes as im working on them but you can go mad and remove a lot of stuff underneath, then I let dry for a few weeks and undersealed it with Dynax UC and UB , and SB in the sills, cavitys etc
Its like painting a car, the more prep work and time spent pre pairing will see better results..

defo with you in the prep work and time spent
I’m future proofing it more than attacking any corrosion as there isn’t any at the moment
prevention is much better than cure...

I'm sure a lot of guys on here would throw up at the thought of non big brand parts, however after my front left calliper locked up again warping the disk (this was the second time, it had a full refurb after the first). I decided an entire new set was needed.
Not having the budget for Brembos or something of that like brand new I took a chance on these along with braided hela lines.
Performance wise they are leaps and bounds over a stock set up which is what I had. For the money they are pretty dam good. Time will tell on the durability side.

Probably not something lying on the shelf at a Dealers.

Nice find that, i wouldn't turn my nose up at them, i started refurbing mine, but gave up and bought a cheap new set.
Work just fine, only thing i would have done is resprayed them like i did.
Really adds to the look.

Finally swapped my black Perrin induction kit to a red one. 3 bloody months I waited for it to arrive. EBay sellers , selling stuff they don't have in stock. Also painted a few bits wrinkle black a few weeks ago so I'm happy how it's all turned out. Had to fit the snorkel back on as the road dirt was spraying all over the engine bay on wet days.
Berore
Tidied up nicely
No more polishing aluminium

Any chance of a pic of the things you used for the job please like the spray can and what you used to prep as I’d like to do some bits on mine in the summers
