Impressive!

GreatOldOne 27th November 2010 11:02

Very nice - But why have you painted the discs? Even if it is heat resistant, The first time you hit the brakes the pad friction will strip the paint of the face of the disc...

Peggyontherun 6th December 2010 17:51

There fake caliper and disks they dont work there only there for show :eusa_drool:
