After a few coats they look like this,arch liners will cover most of it though.

Also painted sump and gearbox craddle with hammerite smooth black.Didn,t want to take them off to powdercoat as they were pretty clean beforehand,also touched in bolts with blue hammerite.

AFTER,I think they look better red.I also don,t have concerns about this being 2 pack paint rather than heat proof paint.Iv,e painted calipers before with 2 pack and had no problems at all.

As there,s nothing to do on the car until front suspension comes back from powdercoaters.I decided to have a good poke around the entire front end for any signs of rot,just like i did with the underneath and the rear.Pleased to say i couldn,t find any rot att all....UNTIL!!!
