Also replaced the rad, as it had several holes in it, with a Nissens Rad. Sorted that out.

Update:

The mystical box......



The Tools....



The Parts, from the box....



The Persuaders....



I know these do't look too bad, but the noise and lack of stopping power forced my hand!






Now what?









Done!

Oh yeah, the cost.... Not sure if anyone else has done the Brembo disc/pad job yet, but this has cost £120 front and rear all in!

Fitted by me.

Needed a new tool (caliper wind back tool) £26 on trade and disc cleaner £4, ran out you see....

£150 total

Local (trusted) garage want that to supply and fit rear brakes only..... No brainer then isn't it?! Lol

Next up is the domed MG badges, custom made for me, but may be able to sort out more if these look good and there is interest..... Will check with the site owners first though.

Not gone OCD enough in my opinion lol, I used to spend entire weekends cleaning inside the wheel arches and under the bonet!!! Not so much since I became a dad though! lol

Will do, my mate has a set on his Accord and they stop it very well! Will be interested to see how I find them, especially as they will be on front and back....

On a seperate note do you know who to contact about promoting the domed badges, is it you Pete? as I should have mine finished soon and on the car next week. I'll take some pics and post them asap too.

As Luke says, Dazzer, or Locking Vinyl does our site stickers and will do the ZS badges.

Right, I have heard of this guy and the company but I have already got some domed badges on the way from a different source and just wanted to see if I can prmote this guy or if I would be stepping on anyones toes? Obviously I do not want to just start a thread going on about badges and stickers etc, so thought I should run it past site owers such as Pete.

Does Dazzer also do the domed style badges do you know? Think i might check his stuff out again.... thanks
