Shield is painted...just. The hot weather had not been kind to my stock of paint, and one part can had started to go off, so I was confined to another, smaller can. I try not to leave less than 1/4 of volume of any can (regardless of can size) in storage for longer than several weeks, but sometimes it's unavoidable. The off can was 5 months old. That's Queensland summer for you!

I'm happy with the appearance of the 'rivets', as long as you don't look at the other side of the shield.

The Illuminating apparatus bracket went on since I took these photos, but i couldn't be bothered cleaning myself up enough to get more bolts from the hardware shop in town, so no other brackets will go on in near future. No matter. Best for the paint to cure a bit more anyway, and it can do that out in the sunshine for a day or so.
