Have you not got any brush marks on here?? Most I've ever seen have had brush marks when you look close. Yours look tidy though.

I used halfords caliper paint and its dried nice and smooth, no brush marks

Cool! If you don't mind me asking, what process did you go through in painting them?

I'm about to do mine - there's two great threads on how to remove the pads and how to mask the area and paint.

No mate there is no brush marks, I removed the calipers and took my time cleaning and painting them. If there had been brush marks on them after they dried I would have done them again!! I am going to paint the rears soon so will put pictures up when I do bud. Got the decals off eBay and they are perfect - correct size.
