All went well at Shiltech in Loughborough today my car went through MOT without a single item or advisory note which means it will be serviced tomorrow and then brake calipers changed to yellow from silver and a full detail undertaken so she is minty fresh when I pick her up on Friday. Let's just hope it does not rain. Roll on spring.

Great News Andrew. I've cleared my diary for Friday afternoon so I can pop over and see her in all her glory. What time are you thinking of getting there?

Miles I am afraid I need to collect the car at 10.00 as I need to work in the afternoon. See you at the midlands meet in a few weeks.

Thanks for letting me know Andrew. Did you get Matt to do the detail, etc?

Had my calipers changed from silver to red - makes such a difference to the look of the car.

Should look great!

Agree completely. Mine are red and look great.

For anyone ordering a new Maserati, coloured calipers and contrasting stitching are two relatively cheap options which lift the look of the car.

yes calipers done and look great according to Geoff at Shiltech, car has been detailed by Matt and ready for collection in the morning. If it does not rain I will take some photos. The general consensus at the garage is that although the look okay they would be much better dark grey with the yellow.

Nice one Andrew.

I'm about 1/2 mile from Geoff's but sadly busy in the morning or I'd have popped around for a look.

Anyway, enjoy the drive home!

Cheers

Dave

Photos of the new calipers, quality not good as taken on my phone..............
Matt from D2Detail did a great job doing some paint correction and the car now looks the best since I have had it.
Still I think it now needs darler wheels later in the year.

Glad you were happy with the results Andrew,
bearing in mind the paint has only had a 2 stage process as part of my winter detail, it has come up really well :)

Hello to everyone else, my name is Matt, (D2Detail.com) based at Shiltech..

Hi Matt welcome the Forum, Just managed to make it home before the rain came. If you have any pics I would be interested to see them especially the before and after of the drivers seat.
