Default Brake Rebuild
Before and after on the calipers..... one less thing to do on bringing my 1989 Porsche Carrera Coupe back to her former glory.

Did you do the work yourself or send them off somewhere?

Very nice. Looks like silver engine enamel spray? If so, did you spray the nuts and bolts too? Did it last when screwing the nuts on or did you finnish it off with some detail paint?

Calipers get too hot for engine paint and will peel. Best to paint them with caliper paint.
