Love the brake calipers in red!!! Did you paint or actually change them out? If you changed them what kind are they?

Looking great! :waytogo: I'm sure being brand new the wax wasn't too necessary but looks great anyway :D

I just now noticed the chrome on the mirrors. Is that new or did I just miss it last time?
