rafsteve where did you get the eyebrows from?
The A-Team called...
This looks pretty good. I fancy doing mine in blue
I only went with red as all my interior is red stitching and it seems to be the colours fiat picked
Mine is all plain black inside so I'd go for blue. I've already put blue LEDs in my footwells. I've got black car mats with blue edging.
What did you use and how long did it take?
That sounds really cool.. im breaking my red theme by making my calipers lime green!haha
I went to halfords for my paint so grab a can of your fav blue.
First of all i did the chrome, i rubbed it down with some 600 grit i found 400 to be to rough, i then coated it in primer and let it dry for half an hour then painted it with a nice coat.. then i put it on the radiator to get nice and hot and i put a thick wet coat on and back on the radiator to dry.
Same method with the fog lights.. the covers come out toward you.. if you getan old credit card or something similar and work in the bottom closest to the grille you can get your hands in and pull it out toward you... again get it nice and hot and put a thick wet coat on... gives it a nice gloss without laqure and stops the paint dulling in the cold... apoligies if this is abit noddy
I'd even stick to my blue theme even for my calipers but it's a special paint for calipers, isn't it?
I think I'm going to look in to doing this when the weather picks up. I don't have anywhere indoors to paint and it's a bit windy at the moment around my neck of the woods.

Seen in halfords today.. blue caliper pint.. 10 a 600 ml spray
Yeh, that's where I intended to go. I may seem like a bit of a simpleton but how easy a job is it?
I know the grille and the fog light surrounds are going to be fairly easy but what about the calipers? I'm sure I read somewhere that I'd need a special tool to get the calipers in and/or out?
