Looks great. Color is sweet. Post more pics when it's all put together.

Looks like a really thorough job, and I can appreciate that a lot. Just for saving future headaches, I would lose the drilled/slotted rotors and just use OEM blanks though.

Very nice job!!
Was any modification needed to put in the rear door handles in?
By this I mean to make it fit.
