Shocktube custom paint

Just finished painting my boring shocktube. Just wanted some opinions... I used some old paint laying around it's a real fine silver metallic as the base, and then a candy blue, unsure of the color because of missing label. And the red I used oem GM supply repair paint, cadillac electric red Then a clear. Thanks

Do you find that the shock tubes tilt forward on an angle?
The tilt on the frame leaves a gap where my eyebrows should be closer to the frame--since its a wrap frame but my pair tilts forward.

Also heat shrink tube is an awesome idea--do you have the sizing?

Pretty sure Oakley did that on purpose, though I can’t recall where I read it. They started canting some frames forward to prevent touching the brow or something
