Sorry JF, what I meant that most of the companies (Hwke, Overfinch, Revere etc.) do them for £350+
And second was, that if you have 22" rims it is must to get, else it looks crap...
Now?

Itt looks like every S Censored t golf gti, porsche and any other sports car. i think the black paintjob looks more better at or under the rrs... my opinion.. but this from hamann i also like Smile they are silver .. RRS TDV8 Modelyear 2009 with some modifications.

dont do it yourself, the calipers have to be sandblasted first then coated 3 or 4 times, with heat proof paint otherwise they crack and peel looks so bad! RR Sport supercharged 06

If you are careful and take your time they can be done for about £15 its a Saturday job and even the most ham fistednumpty could do it preparation is the trick. as long as u use heat proff lacquor it will be fine I have done many cars from ford foci to my friends Ferrari 360.
