Upgraded brake discs & pads, + some reburblishing / styling

My discs were lipped so they needed to be changed, decided to change the pads (nearly worn) and the brake lines too. Whilst I had it all out I gave the wheel wells a good clean and decided to refurbish some of the brackets and bolts, etc., as-well-as the calipers, dampers, and coil springs. 

Here's how it turned out.
