Those look Bloody great! What was the colour you got them anodised in? Did you strip the paint yourself?
If it's broken; should it move? Yes: Use WD40 No: Use cable ties. Now it's fixed!

You could turn that into a business, depending on the costs of the plating.
Nice job :clap:
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

They look mint. Where do you get the ti bolts? Why didnt you choose gold? I like the gold calipers on a firestorm.
