Murcielago suspension detail

Recommended Posts

Detailed out the Murci suspension today in my quest to make this Lambo as good as it can get, thought I would share.

Pictures don't do it justice as they had 12 years of brake dust and road grime  on them.

I am doing low/no dust ceramic pads so it was a good time to get it done.

Very satisfying to look at!

I repainted everything including the rotors, calipers and dust shields and it’s all stayed looking fresh with the ceramic pads.

Did you use the Napa stuff to clean the suspension parts as well? Need to get some of that!

I does look great, thanks Stimpy. No paint work, it's all factory and it did not need it.

I am going to use a convertor on the rust and then Boeshield it. I did the exact same thing as I did with the caliper detail. The Napa stuff is great and make the aluminum look new and removes ALL the brake dust and stains from all metal.

Here's the brake detail video for reference, same exact process I used on the Maserati except the Murci got the full monty.

Inspirational video.

I hit 64 last Monday gone and am about to drop down to working 3 days per week. My globetrotting days are over so I will have the time to do things like this myself.

What make of no/low dust ceramic pads are you fitting on the Murcie?
