nipples facing UP?? have you bled front and REAR as you could have air in the system still??
are the calipers/pads free from seizing??

How did you bleed the brakes mate. Did you do it via compressed air into the brake resvior

As Alyn say's , check you have put the calipers on the right side so the bleed nipple is at the highest point , you can put them on the wrong side of the car and the bleed nipple will be at the lowest point so you will never get all the air out
