as above, I managed to get the rear drums de-rusted and covered in a nice matt black laquer, half of which ended up on my clothes, hands and driveway before the heavens opened and soaked me
My problem is, I took the front passenger wheel off to do the caliper and when I took a closer look there was a hairline crack on the disc brake from the outter edge going down towards the centre covering about 1/3 of the braking suface
this could of been there for weeks who knows, but I want to know is it something to worry about? can I still drive as normal and forget about it? Will I need new disks?
I'd prefer it if I didn't have to get new discs as I don't have the time or money to get some/fit them and plus MITCAR is coming up and I want to be able to go

Any help people? Tom?

NEW DISCS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok chap. Whats best, are OE ones cheapest? I was fairly happy with how they were performing before I noticed the crack so if they are cheap I'd rather have them to some aftermarket ones.
is it just a case of going into fiat and asking for 1.2 front discs?
any idea of the price?

once again my dad has saved the day

Got home and said my Disc's cracked
a bit of abrasive paper and 10 mins later, the "crack" has gone
turns out that the crack was actually just a really hard mark and it sanded off in the end.
yay!!!
Perhaps I should not worry so much eh
thanks for all your help lads
