looks good. don't know if it's just me but the gap between the door and front fender seems to stick out a lot more than the rest.

Thanks serges, bay is looking dope! Love the arc can and the blue bbk!

Chris, I installed the ss lines and just let them drip then had a friend help me bleed them. I actually need to bleed them again. Remember when you bleed them you start from the one closest to the brake fluid and work your way to the furthest away.

Correct me if I'm wrong but you bleed the other way far to closest

I guess I'll just let it drip. I plan on leaving the OEM caliper connected (I won't let it hang on the line) until I get the Akebono caliper bolted on, then I'll quickly unbolt the banjo from the OEM caliper and swap the line over to the Akebono to minimize any fluid loss. And I'll do each corner separately.

As for bleeding, thats the opposite to what people are saying. Most people say to start furthest from master cyl and work towards it.

I took this pic a while back when my SSRs weren't in yet, so i put them behind my buddys wheels.

Color is custom Porsche speed yellow tinted very very slightly orange to get a deeper yellow instead of lame banana yellow.
