Default Subaru 2 pot rear refurb

Going to paint some up to fit to MY00. Got the fitting brackets from Ian.
Anyone know if the Subaru writing is a sticker? It doesn't look machined like the fronts. If so, where can I get that?
Also, anyone know if and where you can get the pad retaining screws in stainless. They all tend to look a bit rusty.
One more thing, a caliper seal kit for these.

Links would be great.

Stickers? PM me an addy and I'll send you some, free of chrge, different sizes.

Stainless screws? Try Yell.com the UK's local search engine - search for UK businesses under "bolt and nut stockists". Take one in and ask them to match it as close as poss.

If you need stainless split pins, google "ship chandlers".

Sorry, can't help with the caliper seal kit, have you tried Ian?

Thanks for the replies.

I couldn't find the stickers on ebay, Not ones that are specific to the rear like these:



Thanks for the offer alcazar, but I'd want them in gold to match the fronts.
So that wil probably be a bit harder to find, thanks though.

That picture is from an Australian site: Spectrix Design

I'll take one of those screws out, and try and get a match, but realistically I'll probably just paint them like above

Ian, I'd only be after the rears. The 2pots I've got are off the car, so might as well do it before they go on.

Sorry for some reason thought it was for the fronts as well.
What exactly does the kit consist of, and is it easy to do?

Yes they are easy to do , you get the inner piston seals , the outer dust covers , and metal clips to hold them in place

I've a local guy who makes stuff like that. He did a pair of Brembo ones for me when I changed my rear Brembos from gold to red. £5 the pair.

Having said that, my eldest just got SIX Brembo ones in white for £4.99 delivered.

If you're interested, I can find out where. he had a choice of colour...........
