Well done! That looks really nice. BTW, where did you get the decals? I just took delivery of a 2014 V-10 Spyder with the ceramic brake option and the decals are getting a bit faded and I would like to replace them.

This place. I found I needed to cut the R and 8 to bring them a tad closer together to cover the oem ones spot on

lol 100% they were on when I bought it, only got 7mm to get though 🙄
I'm right with you. The prior owner of my car had just fitted new P Zeros up front, so I'm wearing them out too! The good news is we'll probably have a couple neat new choices to choose from when the time comes. ;)

As you can see @GMW9666 I did a proper job by taking my arch liners out and 303'ing both sides and even measured my disc thickness;).I even treated myself on the 1 warm day of the year to a Starbucks too lol. Next job engine bay full decontamination and clean. I coated my oil cooler lines as only slightly corroded and the transmission oil cooler lines too.

Grab yourself a pair like this, and then you won't get thrown off by a lip around the edge, as they wear down. ;)

They look good - It's hard to see, however I have a recessed part on both sides that is deeper than the disc lip so they work okay! If not in the future I can file them down slightly but disc thickness will never be that low before I change as they are close to replacement right now.

This is the last time I cleaned it - It is awful right now but I will take before and after pictures when I clean it again.

Thank you for your response. They look great! Did you spray any type of clear coat or sealer over the decals?
