Basically,Got new brembo calipers with discs and pads. New brake lines too. Unfortunately my girlfriends dad is insistant on me getting a garage to do it rather than myself. This is a pain as i have been quoted around £100. surely thats abit high for a front caliper change, new brake lines all round and a brake fluid renewal? thoughts? ________________________________________ Team allesclar ® |
