The decal looks sweet, I hope they are heat resistant

If you have any more decals I would be happy to buy em off you, been after a couple for a while now...

Did you use Japlac to paint the calipers?

I need to repaint my calipers blue as they have faded a fair bit with age. Must get down halfrauds and get some blue hammerite lol, no point in going for jazz blue from VW will soon age again

You might want to try Japlac from B&Q I used them to paint my old TT calipers and it went on really easily and not clumpy like hammerite can be.
