True commitment to the project is going to be some gravel rash. You have put this much effort in to this you now have to bin it on a right hander to get that genuine look to the mech, pedal, grip and the end of the brake lever.

That or just get a rasp file and do your best over a cup of coffee.

Details to admire - the random tube luggage straps, rotting grips, selection of random stickers, and, above all, the Brakeless Booster!
