Cool. I've dealt directly with Wilwood to source a part in the past, very helpful in my experience too.

Quick question. Do your calipers have bleeders at the top and bottom? Looking back at the first page of your build thread it looks like they do. Mine just have 2 at the top, one on each half.

Haha, we'll see if I ever switch up, maybe one day. You and Dave (Mazto) have called dibs.

Chrome hood latch, thanks for the idea Marty and Randy for the help prepping the part for chrome.



Shows a tiny bit through the grill.



Random snap of me working on Fab's (Silencer_0) Coupe installing a last minute polished part before Wekfest yesterday.

Cause the cops were handing out front plate tickets left and right on the way into HF last month. I decided I'm always going to roll to an event with front plates on just in case. I took it off at the show.

All bleeders are on top Tim. So when bleeding the brakes, the air travels up and out of the caliper.

Could be Stephen. I've never installed Willwoods before or even seen them in person. I suppose bottom bleeders could be used to drain fluid. Stoptech, Rotora, Akebonos, Project Mu and Alliance all have bleeders on top. I've only seen the fluid lines running under those calipers

that is a very nice detail. Great idea. Ever thought about a fully polished intercooler (just for show/bling purposes)?
