Default Godspeed Working Their Magic :-) pics!

HI Everyone

Decided to have my front calliper's done by Ian @ Godspeed brakes
They started to stick on one side due to knackered seals & dirty marked pistons, previous owner did not seem the 'caring type'

I only have 2 - pots but have just taken delivery of his discs & kevlar pads a couple of weeks ago & was very impressed so i thought i would have the callipers fully done by him.
Having them fully cleaned & stripped back, primed & done purple (D2 brake colour or very very close as possible) with new stainless steel pistons & new seals etc so can not wait to see how good they will be!

Will post pics up when i get them back.

yes , you will get a text from the couriers in the morning with an hour slot of what time they will be with you , included the hoses and fluid in there as well.
Be prepared though , they are very purple
Can you email tomorrow with more info regarding the Fiat discs for your mate , I need the exact year and model , it would help with the registration number , and i'll see what I can do for him
Cheers Ian

Not my style but they do look mint! Nice refurb. I will do the same one day, lol. My four pots are lovely and rusty looking. Although nothing sticking yet.
