Wow Ian, that's looking fantastic! Great work mate.

I have done the same as you and put everything in place. It looks pretty impressive. Have you used the wheel treatment?

Not used the wheel treatment yet. Will prob leave that to the last thing i do.
My tyres all have a pretty similar finish so might get away without using the oil, plus i've sanded the tops of the tyres to give a worn look so don't know if it will ruin that?!

I didn't use the carbon decals as they seemed rather poo in comparison to some on here are using so figured i'd prefer the black arms instead!

Looking great Ian..:-)
I too was not going to bother with the supplied carbon decals. But was quite pleasantly surprised... Have a go mate, if you don't like them you can easily take them off..:-)
I'm even thinking of ordering the issue again so I can do the underside as well.,

Cheers Chris,
I think that was part of what i didn't like about them that they just sit on top and not under neith but might have a go.
