Brake calipers for painting, phase 2 2003
I know they are Lucas not Volvo, and I've been looking around, but can't find them for sale in many places. Pagid ones from Eurocarparts are about £360 for the calipers alone.
So before I spend £250 getting my own refurbished and painted, anyone know if I can get them new elsewhere for better value? EDIT: never mind I found this thread http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=202888

Not sure when you talk about painting them whether you mean painting them silver or another colour? When receiving an order from Carfactorsuk they have always included a flyer advertising a service to paint your new calipers to any colour you want - if you're thinking about going for a non-standard colour (yellow?) then it might be worth enquiring as to their charge for this?

Not sure of colour, whether it'd be black, silver, yellow or Polestar blue.

I have a full set of calipers (almost new less than 2yrs old) from my V40 T4 2001(phase 2).
They are OE spec, but not from Volvo. Make me an offer.. |

BM, I think the Lucas ARE what Volvo use.
That is the make of mine and the set I put into the brake calliper refurbishing initiative. Who has the spare set now? Here are my blue ones, just done this week. Gary
