well it was tape and looked too dodgy after a week or so, so just took it off.

Did you have a red strip on yours when you had the white mo's on?

How did you do it if you did? Just wondering if theres any another ways of making it last...

Yeah, ive still got the same strip on now :)

Which stuff did you use?i used red STRIPE tape in a little blue packet from Halfords

Just bent it around the edges by warming it up with a hairdryer and using the sticky back part to just stick it to the bumper simple as that .It's a 2 man job though.

thats exactly what i done but without heating it up, and it started to come off around the curve of the grill if you get what i mean. So i just took it all off. I was thinking of going to a vinyl place and getting them to do it so i know it wont come off and not have air bubbles etc.

Well, as the car was at UD, ill put a few pics up...

The car is back in the bodyshop as from tomorrow, as the car was not painted well at all... I was very upset with how it turned out at the show, there was all sorts of bad bits! They wont be there for next shows though which is good and will be looking all good again asap!

Enjoy! Comments welcome...

I don't understand bra's at shows - in my opinion use them for what they're made for then put them away - but the car was looking nice at UD :)

to be honest...i see your point very clearly..

Theres a story behind the bra being there...On the way home from the bodyshop, a bottle flew up and hit the bonnet on the motorway, so thought it was better to hide it than have it shown.

Cars in the bodyshop again now for a few weeks so should be all sorted...
