Thanks big man, I knew as soon as I saw it I wanted it. I bought it at a dealer but found the previous owner-he even gave me a memory stick with the videos of the dyno runs and manuals.

... calipers ...

New SS braided lines front & back, HH rated pads and chrome caliper covers were put on during the facelift.

Mechanic took the picture while installing these:

The pods were install before the braided line and calipers to have more working room.

Haven't been home to see the finished result though I like the look so far.
