Looks nice. But I am wondering why you didn't just leave it hex? Its nice to have the full hex when adjusting the toe. No goofing around with finding the wrench flats.

Imo they look too plain just hex.

Very nice work!
Our aluminum sleeves look pretty similar - thought you might want to see what they look like in black:
