this is what it looks like when the brake fluid has leaked for a while

Difference between 1.6 and 1.8 brakes.

the tie rod ends needed done.

The wheels back on to see what it looked like, not to bad if you ask me.

Fallen Hanabi, Chicksdigmiatas has a set on his to, he said there very hard to find. He curbed one and the only one he found was bronze. He had the silver ones like mine.
