Wow that looks sexy!

I was hoping to throw some Superman comments but you cut me short

Hopefully, next week. Akrapovic is also (finally) scheduled to arrive next week, so everything can be installed at the same time.

That looks really good, looking forward to the hearing the performance feedback.

Bigger rotors as well or just a like for like brembo replacement?
Spacing looks tight on that caliper, will a 20" wheel fit?
