My fronts were replaced in 2016 (2008 ca). I bought it in 2013, and thought the brakes didn't feel that great. I put it down to CCM's working better when hot.
Anyway, goes in for service in 2016 and of the 12 pistons at the front a grand total of 6 (3 per side) were actually doing something. The...

F430 Key Restoration - Tricolore
Being pleased with the results of restoring my Key I thought I'd try something a little more adventurous for the other - spare -Key.
