Hard brake and fluid line brackets

[Jlaa]

Hi gang,

I would like to improve the look of the underside of my car. Might anyone know if new brackets come with a coating to prevent surface rust? If so, may I trouble you with part numbers?

If new brackets do not come with a coating then I will blast and paint my old ones. Thanks.

Looks like there are at least 4 different size/types of metal bracket? I'm not sure which is which. The first is spendy at $7.50 MSR, the others are cheap, all $2.20 or less MSRP:

124-476-01-40
124-328-05-40
201-476-07-40
201-476-08-40

ECS Tuning has photos of that last one:

Coincidence. Just looking at mine today and thinking the same thing. Easy to blast and paint. Or clear?

You might also consider having your original items Zinc Plated. I use a local specialist now for my w124 bits and it’s not expensive either! The lot in the pictures attached cost £20 to get done. So a set of clips like that should run you about $10 or less. They not only look like new but will not corrode for years to come.

Silver is the most common plating - I choose yellow zinc as it's period MB correct so it's got an extra coating on top of the silver Zinc
