Complete except for the hood! Need to do the hood still but I'm happy how it came our. Also have to plug in a couple of minor push pins.

^ Thanks! And yah i like how the rsx rims sit, the rears could use a spacer to push it out a little bit by maybe 10 mm. but i need to get extended lugs to do that.

The fronts have like a 1-2 mm gap between the brake caliper bracket and the spokes, so it barely clears!

When i was painting the brackets i was worried the rim might be close enough to scrape it but i did it right and no issues!

You have made really fast work of this :hail: :oops:

I've painted calipers in situ before now, bb1boy (but only brush painted). It's quite easy if that's the way you're doing it - I can't be arsed with all the masking up in order to spray paint them on the car :x

Some more love! While pulling the old plugs out there was a bit of oil on them! So next up would be a new valve cover gasket set!
