Got these back today - very impressed with the finish they have. Will look very nice with my new plus discs, yellow stuff pads, new tyres and refurbished wheels along with spacers! About £160 all in in the end and paints garenteed for 2 years.

Nice job for very little money. Thought you had swapped with Lucas though for the c6?

Thought about it but with pads and discs already new it just was not worth it. Ive got new braided lines going in as well so I cant see these being that bad....? Also needed the money for some additions to my ZZR1400 which Im doing up as well.

Looks good, who did the refurb?

A company on the net called "The Brake Caliper Company". Did take over a week mind, nearly 2 in my case but i was in no real rush.

Ive got all the s/steel shims and new bolts polished up ready to go together tomorrow night.

They look to have done a decent job - nice one
Were the calipers fully refurbed, or was it just to freshen up the paint and decals?

Reminds me, I need new decals for my calipers. At the moment mine are ghey pink.

Mmm. Shiny.

They look awesome, not too shabby a price too £115 for a pair and £185 for the 4 calipers!!

I'll be giving them a buzz tomorrow!!

Here's the link to their website:

Look awesome. What about the decals did you have to supply them?

Only a cosmetic refurb as all pistons slide perfect and dust boots undamaged. They supplied the decals as there garenteed then. Web price grows quick so dont think its as cheap as it says, still good value though.

I have been considering getting this done to my old set that have set on the garage floor since October last year to help sell them (when I eventually advertise them....) but I doubt that that I would recoup the £160 etc put in to refurbing them. Was contemplating sticking them up for sale at £300 as is and while it is a close call, I think they were in better overall aesthetic condition than yours R8 going on that pic.

Mine worked fine but just looked shabby compared to all the other new bits so bit the bullet to get them done.
