Shit yer... Looks great Ron. All the little bits count. Love the yellow on the AP's. Factory look. How big them rotors mate? Any plans to upgrade the rear brakes?
Headlights look awesome with the insides painted. What colour is that in there? Black or grey? Angle in the pic makes it tricky to see.

Keep up the good work mate. You must be hanging to drive it... The new boots look good for a bit of heel toe action too!!

Looking good on the car ron, I think it took about a week just to clean up the thread on these.
Maybe there is a bush or a rubber for these?
