Yesterday I received the newly anodised brake calipers back from Jay (recommended by Mark/G_L_SR). All in the cost was £110, that's blasting & anodising black two front calipers,one rear caliper and polish the Nissin name. Pictures to follow later as I rebuild them, but she has done a beautiful job on them.
Anyone interested in a long lasting finish (it's how the standard calipers are finished) and certainly more robust than paint, I have checked with Jay and she is happy for me to pass on her contact number.

Now there's a contradiction in terms
They sound awesome Kev and you know they would have done a good job with a recommendation like that. I look forward to the pics.
I'd like to do something with my rearsets but I know Black anodising on them is a real pain and not easy to achieve. I'm thinking Black Gilles may have to go on my shopping list

after feeling the action on Martys (no comments please

) I'm most impressed.
