That looks smart mate, how much did the real deal set you back ?

Bought a sheet of it approx 6'x2' for £20 at ultimate dubs then cut it out using a slitting disk on a grinder. Cutting it kicked out some dust and horrible smells from the resin so had to wear a dust mask lol. Mines held on with stickey fixers and the bit on the engine cover is siliconed on but may have to change it for something stronger as i has lifted up in one corner- wether it was due to not enough silicone or not liking the heat only time will tell. Like the rub strips and your rear badge with the small chrome border showing through- looks smart.

Chears mate
I didn't realise it was that cheap otherwise i might have bought some myself, you have done a nice neat job of cutting it out anyway
I'm going to strip my front badge tomorrow and do it the same as the back badge as i think it looks better with the border

i agree, it looks great with the border, would you consider running off some more pre-cut vinyls so i can do mine? i'll reemburse you for time/materials, of course

[TomArnold]

Is there any chance I could get hold of one of these rear badge cut outs too please? I will also sort out any materials delivery and time for you!

 

[TomArnold]

Did you wrap your rub strips whilst they were still on the car?
