Telford ay it...
Yeah they do look good when done , I've got black and white vinyl infront of me , Word of warning the black vinyl is harder too use than the carbon as its much thinner ! ... But behind the plate is so easy too do mate.. hardest part is takeing the insert / grill out and back in the bumper.. What a chew on that was..

Basically cut it too size with about 5 mm extra too overflow the edges.. flat the middle with a card so you have no bubbles then get a hair dryer and heat the edges,they will tuck down the sides perfect!

Then let the corners get a little overlap line and cut each one with a knife or your choice of weapon ;) , Then push the overlapped edges into the side they have heated around with a credit card too create a smooth edge .. Hope that makes sence? Any problem ask me and ill help you! atin

Cheers :thumbup:

I think bonnet bras in general just look terrible...put them on for a motorway run then take them off as soon as possible and hope no1 saw you with one on lol

Pics look good mate, I've got to agree with Scott that the splitter is ruining it. It'd look better without one.

I made a custom splitter a while back which looked ok untill a high kerb decided it didn't like it! I now have two small bits of splitter either side of the main grille! Looks a bit funny but I don't care anymore :(
