My only hassle with the Brembo's is how freaking dusty they are... no joke... its ridiculous... Powdercoating these wheels is getting closer and closer to being on the cards...

Jimmy is that with the Subie OEM pads or other make?

NOOOO!!!!!

Chrystal Titanium is the only colour for Ultralegerra's

get yourself some dixcel type m pads and the problem with me solved, trust me on this one mate.

[Jimmy S]

GTB Liberty - yeah... pretty sure they are just the stocker pads!

Hotwire - I almost had them powdercoated prior to fitting them to begin with... mostly as I wanted something darker... I still plan to powdercoat them at some stage, as I love the black on black look, although black on dark gunmetal will probably be the go when the time comes!

Dave - Are you buying? If so, I'm there!

its works........ and your rotors will love you.

btw nothing wrong with brembo finish on your rims...... it took 3 weeks for mine to turn charcoal, had so many people fooled about the colour of my wheels

[Jimmy S]

Hahah... I know what you mean Tony... I washed them and then wiped them clean on the Saturday(no easy task with Ultraleggera's) so they were spotless...

By wednesday(4 days) they were obviously grey...

2 weeks on... they are completely filthy...

How do you think I got the Brembo's!?

I don't think I can play the same game twice!

now how are those mirror covers going?

Mirror covers are still behind the bar, waiting for Rob to bring his around (plus a few other goodies) so I can make sure they fit(so he can sell them) before putting these ones on...

[Jimmy S]

Well... for those of you not following Rob(Ultrex's) thread... He popped around today with some goodies!

The lib is now sporting a CF grill and I have a diffuser sitting on the back seat waiting to be fitted!

Rob has a few photo's in his thread of them, but I will wait until I get the diffuser on and give her a bit of a rinse before posting some more pics up!

[GTSPECB STI]

Good work my boy ! That winged chrome grill is truly meant for the shelves. Are Rob's mirror covers the same size as the ones I gave you? I thought that the fitment was the same but they will stretch abit when you put the adhesive on. Still going to require a good amount of curing time to get them to fit properly and look decent I reckon but it is possible.

Jimmy, you have now taken the mantle from Dave - CF Slut !!

[Jimmy S]

Hahah... we'll see Dwayne... Dave still has the CF diffuser over me...

[GTSPECB STI]

once the ARC CF scoop goes on properly that will be the end of CF cosmetic mods Dwayne. Too much rice can spoil the meal.

[Jimmy S]

got some racing stripes for the rear bumper!

[Sentinel]

Hmmm - the eye is drawn to left side more than the right. Maybe a few more on the right to balance it up. Oh, I like the center one with the twist - nice touch.

LOL!

Plenty of polish after that lot comes off!
