Looks great I am in the process of installing sinister fender and bags. I know what you mean about shimming, had to do the same to align the gap between bag and fender. The right bad is setting about 1/8" higher. Scratching my head on how to lower. I can contest to the license plate, huge pain in ***. I used a dremmel tool to cut. A good file finishes the edges nicely. Whos brake module did you run with?

Yaffe claims with their LED you don't need a resistor. At this point I can't tell you if that is true or not.
