I'm at the point when I wanna refurb my brake calipers. The main reason is one of the rears doesn't lock the wheel. Other one is MOT due to march. And third: I did instal front ones stright as I get them. They work well but I wanna make sure they won't fail.

All four will go in pieces. New seals already arrived. I don't know what pistons cond are, so I didn't order them yet. Because fronts are red and rears are green all need a touch of new paint. And here is my question. What colour will look good on my car? Before respray they were green and it looked awsome for me. Now I'm totaly undecided. Need your help.

I think paint them bodycolour, that will look great behind white wheels :)

I was actually going to suggest Kawasaki green before you mentioned you already have a green pair.

Not the best pics, but it's good for a contrast ;-)
