Sorry I don't know where to find a caliper Mainly as I'm not in the UK.

But I do like your Uno. Looks like BMW Boston Green? There's something about the car that's very appealing - it carries off all those mods well and the correct, rare, period-style Hormann bodykit is good to see. I like the modern-style wheels but wonder if they could perhaps be a little wider/more spaced out to suit the bodykit.

I think the bottoms of the bumpers look a bit tacky in that uneven gloss - I'd immediately repaint them matt black if I had the car.

Please take this as constructive criticism only Great car!

I also don't know where to get a brake caliper, have you tried going to a garage and seeing if they can order it in, or ring up euro car parts and see if they have the caliper and mount.

Now, on to the looks. That car is amazing, it looks awesome. I wouldn't change one thing on it apart from putting on a chrome front strut brace.

I don't agree with you about the bumpers Alex, I think they set the car off :slayer:

partco, eurocarparts, bigg red, almost any motor factors should be able to order the calipers, as well as the mounts,

Looks like Ford Apollo met green to me, I`ve got a few litres of it in the garage (I was going to do my old HB Viva in it).

Not sure about the bumper issue, the fact its obviously kitted means the fully colour keyed bumpers look more `normal`.

I never understood why they made the arches dip at the top, to me it wrecks the kit, especially as they didnt do door skins to flow them in. The `Testarossa` intakes in the rear arches look very dated now too.

If I was to fit a wide arch kit to an Uno I`d use Escort Mk2 x-pack or Integrale box arches, or maybe just fabricate my own out of sheet steel, as cutting the rear wings in 1/2 & sticking fibreglass ones on doesnt do the rigidity & strength any favours, especially if you havent fitted a roll cage...

Is it me or does the front strut brace look a bit off?
