Looks a nicely made .I was considering making one up from a Corsa b unit but thought better of it.
I opted for the gps speed sensor but not sure if I shouldn’t have stuck with a std analogue cable one
Time will tell

[toopy]

What's the technique you use to do those cam covers with the contrasting lettering and the products please?

 

[Pondo]

Is that a heat resistant paint on the callipers or do they not need it?
