Helix | Out with the Old, In with the New (BBK Tease)

Alex@Helix · 11-17-2011, 03:50 PM

Had a customer and good friend come in and have his old OEM brakes taken off and had some Rotora's put in. The Calipers are painted a custom Gold Color and I think they look GREAT!

Here are some Pictures, More to come:

Fuck my rusting wheel hubs ... seriously, BMW, WTF. They were rusting one month after I got the damn car.

Correct. The caliper was shoved on for photographic goodness. You'd have a hard time bleeding it as it sits. Very observant Mr. Subie.

subieworx · 11-18-2011, 10:12 AM

Just making sure. Seen people do it before and end up wOndering why they can't get air out of the lines.
