I was going to ask exactly the same thing!

The eyelids look good maniax!

So what about the squish squish sounds? Did the new strut mounts help?

No still have them in my house. Didn't have a chance to install them yet but it seems that the squeaky sounds just went away by itself. I think ima wait till the struts are due to do the mounts at the same time

Thanks for all your feedback.

I have decided to paint the back calipers red too when i have time.

Meanwhile, here are some better pics of the whip after a bath

Notice the tight clearance between the calipers and the IS rims
