Are you just doing the wheels or the wing mirrors and other bits you'd sticker bombed
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Right so had a downside to the stilo it started to miss fire bad when it rained so checked under the air box where the plugs are and found it had pencil coils not ht leads. The worsed part chamber 1 & 2 had perished on the harness connection peice so there was very little connecting :( in turn this is causing the clock needles to not work 100% of the time whilst driving as most power from the battery is going direct to the bad contacts on the coils. Luckily found some 2nd hand ones and the guy has promised they aint brittle fron the engine heat as a full set will leave me 60-90 quid lighter where as the 2nd hand ones are less than half the price but ob the upside finally got round to spraying the grill gloss black :D so will pic it once fin and back on the car later

Much better and wind deflectors set it off a treat :)

Did you just buy a new badge?
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Looks nice and subtle, think the mix match of carbon fibre and sticker bomb is an odd contrast, I'd swap one to which ever you like more but very few people will even notice it [emoji38]
