Very true, can make pipes easily now, and can bleed the brakes in under 5 mins once the wheels are off.

Test drive yesterday went really well. The black paint had been removed from the front brakes, still some on the rears. I plan to do more test driving today. During my drive yesterday it was down country lanes, that way I could apply brakes and wouldn't be any one behind. I could pull into layby and use my IR temprature gun to check tempratures, make sure nothing binding/dragging. All results looked very good.
Was a nice drive out, brake pedal feels great, responce of the brakes feel very good too. Still more bedding into to do, but initial results I am very happy.

I didn't get a photo, but leaving the garage yesterday my brake discs look great in the wheels, certainly fills the once emptry space of the 18inch rims. I should have got a photo. I have a photo when they were black, now that has worn off, the silver looks fab.

Original for comparison.
