The changes to that Campagnolo crankset are truly amazing ! Never would've guessed it's origins.

I had looked at these pictures before but missed a lot of the color matching details until now. The yellow highlighting of the spade cutouts in the shifters and the yellow fill on the brake levers are really subtle and nice.

It's really easy to do the crankarm and shifter grooves, but the lettering in the brake calipers is a really nice accent.
