Stunning. 
You knew black skirts were the best idea, wheels and brakes look smart too 
Now get the black trim painted gloss and get it lowered

my pedal feels a bit spongy at the moment but i think that may be down to the fact they are new pads and disks, but yes they are alot better they actually make me move foward if i brake now.
