Now just to sort the discs and bolts.

You anodised them right?

What are the 4 mini bells for in the middle? Are you getting them fitted to an Exige model?

They’d be spacers to move the front calipers out a bit so 295mm disks fit.

They will be hard anodised when i find someone to do them.

Can you not just paint them?

Can you not just paint them?

You could …

However its better to have them resistant to damage and corrossion - Hard anodising gives a hard surface (no sh!t) that will mean that the fit diameters to the hub dont get damaged easy etc etc

And surely thay’d need painting A LOT. They get blooming hot, expand, vibrate, wet, etc.

and you should not be bolting a disc/wheel assembly down on a painted surface.

Got round to taking them to the anodisers yesterday and i have just picked them up.
They are hard anodised so should be up to the job

nice battleship grey?

how much did they charge by the way?

I gave them a pic of the AP bells and said i want them like that.
The alloy (HE15TF i think) was about �60.
Got them made for free
Andoising �40

Now just got to get the discs �800 for the 4
