Looks good Tom!
I'd put a coat of VHT paint over the back plates now to give them some heat protection as the calipers can get quite hot. It should be alright with a couple of coats of stonechip but better to be safe than sorry.
Are the ends of the flexis rusted to the brackets? Try soaking them in wd40 for a bit and then put some grips on the union and wiggle it back and forth until it starts moving, then as you move it side to side try pulling it out of the bracket at the same time. I don't remember them being that bad when I cracked the unions off, the ones on the 940 GL were a lot worse and they came out fine after a soak and a wiggle.
