I am looking to get my calipers refurbished and have been in contact with BCS who seem like a pretty big player but they are asking for pictures of the pistons as apparently there are some calipers they can't do.

The calipers are still on the car and so i can't get any pictures. Its a 2008 4.2 gt. Are these calipers just a standard brembo model or in typical italian style is everything a non standard size?

Thanks.

Weird. They have my fronts and rears now. They never asked anything other than what car they were from.

When I had mine done, never had any questions they just took the P*** with how long it took.

Thanks, if they're doing yours then there shouldn't be a problem.

They did say that they were moving into a new premises so the turnaround time was a lot longer.

As long as they don't loose mine!! My fronts are 6 pots. Gone for recolour as everything is ok otherwise.

Take them to your local body shop, £250 cash would see them done.

if you then get the decals off eBay for £20 and have them fitted then laquered over the top.
