Painting and Lowering - Monte carlo

[Dan.Poulter]

Hola!

 

I'm looking too paint my Calipers red and drums black before winter fully sets in and i've done some research and found most people use Hammerite? Is that  a good paint for Calipers? Is it just a case of getting a brush out and painting them? Or do i have to faff about removing them etc...

 

Also looking to lower my car by 30mm Does anyone have any pictures of a Monty Lowered?, I'm gonna go for the Eibach Springs next payday and fit them myself... Does this void warranty because they aren't fitted by a Skoda dealer?

 

Cheers, Dan

If you buy the skoda approved springs from skoda, you will get a 12 month warrenty on them, and they wont remove you warrenty for the rest of your suspension ect as they are approved mods... i cant see how fitting them yourself would make any difference

I thought the eibach were the skoda approves ones?

[sharkrider]

they are, but I'd still be tempted to buy them from skoda, not from somewhere else, thats all I meant....

Yo tempra hows it going... tell me this do Subaru rims go straight on to a mk2 fabia .??

These ones had to have 1mm removed from the centre as the scooby run with 56.1mm centre bore and the Fabia 57.1mm, any cars with the 57.1 m should go on but watch the offset.
