^ i've actually done the same thing with the vinyl window trim wrap. following blnewt's excellent DIY i struggled to do those easier lower pieces with only a couple mistakes before running out of time last weekend. we'll see when i get around to finishing it off, but i kinda like how it looks right now!
Looks good. I can't believe I'm saying this, since I'm a function over form guy.... but I think spacers are my next mod
Just because one would install spacers, that doesn't mean there is no longer any function... there is still function depending on how you set them up. a nice flush look won't ruin function at all I'm more of a function over form guy too but if done properly you can achieve a nice stance and yet be functional
Installed pads today but wasn't able to to get to the fluid. No impression yet as EBC says to drive 200 miles first, then do the bed in procedure. Checked out the rotors and they were smooth as a babies butt so no need for turning. Had I known this I wouldn't have gone through the trouble of taken off the rotors but it is what it is. Now for the fun part. I'm noticing slight vibration at all speeds after putting the rotors back on/new pads. Is it possible that some of the rotors aren't seated perfectly or maybe one of my wheels? I don't see what else could cause the vibration.

Odd that EBC recommends 200 miles before bedding in the pads?
Did you run some fine grit sandpaper over the rotors or anything?
My guess: you have slight deposits from your old pads, that your new, thicker pads are coming in constant contact with.
