Small update.

Brembo painting is done, hopefully I've used enough clear over the decal but only time will tell. Will start to put everything back in them next week and they will be ready to go.

I bought some new shoes!

Volk Racing CE28RT - 18x9 +43 wrapped in 245/40/18 RE003. Bridgestone had their 4 for 3 deal again on the potenza range which made the price irresistible.

There is none. Factory privacy glass on the rear, normal factory glass on the front. That's how they roll out of the showroom.

The only rubbing I have experienced so far is from the front when cornering hard. I'll raise the car up a bit all round and roll the guards for good measure. It was actually an easier fit than I thought.

They look killer against the black paint. Will look better with the Brembo brakes behind them.
