Mine are painted with grey por-15,it matches the gearbox colour. I have a pair of yellow cv boots, but otherwise it's pretty boring under there.

does the united colours of benneton pay you to do that

Who could be bothered to paint them? The only time I see them is when I have the shits about having to get down there. I could buy beer with the money you waste on paint!

Baja Wes,
Very Nice... detailed rear end....
Good to see others like their VWs painted in a colour other than black...

My gearbox is red , yellow & black....

I painted inside My rear Brakes , shoes , backing plate etc
but didn't paint My New brake cylinders as they were sort of goldy looking... but forgot to take photos of them..

Lee, you are either colour blind, or have no colour co-ordination :puke

ie. I don't know about your colour choices...

Why would you paint the INSIDE of your rear brakes? :o

Paint them BLACK and no one will C them.

Small hands, smells like cabbage!

I found I have New White Pedders Gas shocks on the front,
they come painted white.... I think I might take them off as I don't like Gas shocks on the front.. with very little weight...
I have also bought two new front sets of oil shocks since....
Cofap & Monroe .... so I'll have to paint another set...
I think I'll paint these yellow too....

Probably both Wes.... and I use whatever colours I have on hand at the time usually... I have a few cans I haven't used as yet...

Have you got a cememnt mixer Lee? You could throw in all the different coloured cans you have, mix em all up, then the first one that tips out is the one you use. Kinda like lotto, but a random colour generator.
