Default Brake caliper overhaul.

One of my to do list is to overhaul my brake calipers, as for parts of the caliper are faded in colour, possibly laquer and the odd chips in the paint.

What condition are your calipers like on your Turbo? covering what sort of mileage on the car?

I think whilst at it, under the arch could do with a clean, and brake check with pads, disks and see if the copper brake lines are in order.





Has anyone refurbed their calipers? If so can I have a look? thanks Norm

Wow - Those look pretty darn good to me as-is.
Doing a cosmetic (or even mechanical) overhaul on my brakes is very, very low on the list - they look ok (black - 3.3 car) but work fantastically.
