look what turned up today thanks clark

just trying to flatten the bent one.

Glad they got there ok andy . its very unfortunate that one door one was kinked as the rest are mint. The passenger door had been resprayed at one point on the black xr2i and whoever took it off pull it off used there bare hands.

Btw i would advice not to stick them on when its a really cold day. The dampness in the air wont allow the fresh glue to go off and you may find them peeling off going down the road.

If you got a nice heated garage to hand .... get em on

[AW3K]

seeing as it was too cold and rainy outside i couldn't put the stripes on soooooooo................

i did this







no its not painted, its polished

excellent, the blue and the black have broken up the red nicely. it looks so good now. i think it deserves to have a 2.0 fitted

[knuckles]

Looks a million times better with them blues

Any luck on flattening the bent one ?

[AW3K]

xr2i alloys are the way forward

[AW3K]

xr2i alloys are the way forward

that would involve 4 new tires , then putting amber back on, bus mirrors, taking pop outs out and putting fixed in, putting black spoiler on, mk3 wiper etc lol
