Thanks Blue, as stated before looking forward to seeing your Shine parts painted/installed.

Lol to each his own, thanks Brandon.

psh too far away lol I am getting the paint correction/professional detail done next weekend now. Too much going on over the 4th. Dropping her off Friday, picking her up on Monday. I still want to do more to her and I could always take off the color and go back to black

Bahaha thank as always for the help as well John.

Definitely was way too liberal with the brake cleaner after install and forgot to grease the pads (it was about 1am when we finished) so I'll be going back in and greasing them properly asap.

Feels a little better than stock under normal braking and much better under hard braking. They will also help the fight against brake fade (compared to OEM) out at the track which is most important to me

Refined my bumper "tuck" with a Dremel and painters tape





The trim is very subtle from normal angles, I like the result and retained the lower mounting points



Weight loss

Nice! That's a creative alternative to the standard bumper tuck. Came out great.
