Just spent the day painting my rear calipers green again and also fitted new drilled discs and pads.They now look the dogs bits but sadly when i came to bleed the n/s rear brake the bleed nipple decided to bring all the threads from the caliper with it.Have spent an hour trying to find a good s/h green caliper but cant find any.....Is the rear caliper the same on any other model of car please as this may be my only route :( :(

Cheers for any advice

You could always try a helicoil kit, but best would be to re-tap it for an oversized nipple. (oo-er)

lol.

You could get a caliper from an LCR, Audi TT FWD (I think), golf R32 or toledo V5 20V.

None of them will be green though.

Brand new one is £75 if the worst comes to it.

Is that for a green one?

Nope, the hammerite is extra
