Re: Refurbished Calipers
That's why it's odd. I'm pretty sure the original calipers were filled in. My C5 and C6 calipers are.

Re: Refurbished Calipers
Thats a bloody good idea using studding to slide the wheel out onto rather than it dropping down and chipping the paint on the wheel or caliper!bam_bam wrote:
