hopefully there wasn't too much damage...hahaha!
Nope it wasn't me though. Car didn't leave the garage today. Although I'm not terribly far from there, just on the other side of Richmond Hill off Yonge.
I know there is a Tims at Bayview and 7 in the Loblaws plaza...not sure about Yonge and 7. Hell, there's a Tims on every corner everywhere...lol!!

The color of the ride is the same as yours that's why i thought it was you. I very seldom see your car color, especially in the Richmond hill area haha. We got more Tims than cars in Canada haha.

Haven't posted any updates in awhile since winter has pretty halted work on the car.
A little preview of the Spring project underway...350 front brake conversion.
Just got them back from powder coating...gloss black, so wet looking you can jump right in like it's water!!

Where did you get the rebuild kit (seals, etc.) from, or are you having a shop do it?... or did they just tape off the pistons/seals and powdercoat them as is?

Very clean MRM build! I didn't realize how few MRMs are in this forum lol... I'm now debating between painting or powdercoating my calipers since yours came out looking great.

Painting with the right prep and product can turn out fantastic.
Powdercoating is some next level $h1t! LOL!!
I was lucky to know a guy, that knows a guy, that hooked me up.

I haven't gotten the rebuild kit yet, but I will get it from Lexus.
Unfortunately winter isn't going anywhere anytime soon, so I'm not in a rush.
I looked around at aftermarket rebuild kits, and pricing, and to be honest, based on price and piece of mind, the dealer kit prevailed as the best choice...and realistically not expensive at all considering how many pieces it contains.
