Was behind cos he needed a head start! :lol:
Bought a whole sheet for 215 bucks. Have closed off the front of the tray, isolated the pod under the bonnet and cut a full set of new stoneguards..still got about half a sheet left. Considering continuing the checkerplate/flat black theme up throught the ac/fan switches and up into the dash :?
