Looks spanking mate. The only thing really letting it down for me is the heatshield on the throttle cable, looks a bit tatty. Practical, but I'm sure you could improve it, you've done everything else now surely

Have a look through the Demon Thieves Motorsport catalogue mate, I'm sure they do something in black to shield cables etc, might be something suitable for you. Once you've found it, just look about to find it cheaper lol.

That stuff does start to look old very quickly I find. It's a minor point though, I'm just being a picky bugger, as everything else looks spanking!
