    Thanks Mav Guy! Not bad for a $500 paint job...:D

    The one-piece isn't that big of a deal. On mine I have to install the z-bar from underneath, kind of corkscrew it through the header tubes and slide onto the block stud first. Then attach the frame mount. Took me a couple tries 'till I figured out how to do it.

    I bought silicone for mine a while back but I dont have a brake system in yet. Other than flushing the system, is there anything else I need to do?? I take it that this stuff does not eat paint like the old stuff.

    Not sure if flushing is enough or not. May need to replace your cylinders and calipers. I wasn't sure that's why I stayed with the Paint Remover type ... :D
