Better tell your insurance company you have modofied your brakes.Come to think of it, you better not as they might consider your car unroadworthy and dangerous. Im sure there will be some concern from the insurer when they ask exactly what you done and you reply, " I drilled some random holes into my disks"  ________________________________________ |

 Are they black diamonds? I had two pairs on my old Renault 19 valver do that. I went back to standard after the second pair did it________________________________________ My old man wrote me a letter from prison once. It said if you don't want to end up in here, stay away from crime, women and drugs. Trouble is, that don't leave you much else to do, does it? |

While you're at it, why not go for a "do-it-yourself" performance air-filter? Take the stock airbox, wrap some carbon-fibre sticker round the outside, then chuck the cartridge and replace with : Hey presto - the credit-crunch BMC carbon airbox  ________________________________________ Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch....Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.
