Looks great Ally (i would say that)

Did you do the rears to? I only used the decals on the fronts as i thought the rears were a bit small to bring attention to.

Mine had a few coats of lacquer over them and are still there 2years on.

Looking back at yours gave me the kick up the arse I needed to get on and finally tidy up my calipers :). I only stickered the front calipers for the same reasons as you. I've gone without lacquer for the moment as I want the option to remove them if I decide they look cack. Checked with the seller and they say they're fine without being laquered on. We shall see...

As my interior demonstrates, I don't really ever go with the flow! (* founding member of the non-stubby club)

It's honestly rained pretty much since I finished painting the calipers, and since I've had no need to drive the car yet I'm waiting for a dry/sunny opportunity for some proper pics of the full car. Could be waiting a while, but will be post when I get some :)
 
I considered red, to match my red leather interior, but I decided against it because I feared it would look a bit chavvy, imho.

Yours look good though, it'll be interesting to see how the vinyls hold up!

How much do you think a body shop would charge to prep and paint my calipers? I've never jacked a car up or taken a wheel off so don't feel comfortable trying it myself. Mine look rusty and horrid and let the car down.
