Bled the brakes today. I used 3/16 in tubing run into a gallon jug. Drilled a couple holes in the lid, one for the tubing, and one for a vent. Poured a 1/4" of brake fluid into the bottom of the jug, and then bled the brakes as usual. Worked great. Just make sure you have enough tubing for the jug to sit safely on the ground.

When I was done w/ the brakes, I bled the clutch per Manual 308-00-1 Clutch System Bleeding. All is well.

I touched up my wheels with Rustoleum 327907 Metallic Aluminum paint. It's an exterior paint, so it should last a little better than the interior paint I had tried. The color match is good. The sheen is not quite as glossy as the OEM paint. Rotated the tires, of course.

I did my brakes a while ago. I used a vacuum pump and it took a while but worked good. How did you bleed the clutch?
