      another small advantage of using the film is if its the laminx stuff like i've had before it will offer you a small bit of protection from stone chips as my stuff was quite thick compared to the "fly eye's" stuff you can get.

        It is the laminx.
        I'm just wondering if it will be able to follow the contour of the rear lamps though...

          Rear Headlamps done.

          I have to say not easy and as mine have never been off the car I had to do it on the spot. A few little subtle air bubbles should dissapear with time according to the shop.

          Like the result. Hope they last!

              Not seen a Black RS2 look that good before, the suspension height, wheels and Carbon pillars set it off lovely.

              The other thing I noticed is the suede steering wheel. Would love to have something similar at the leather does get very slippy after 18 years of use. Was this your standard wheel re-trimmed?

                  Nice work. Wasnt too sure on the dark on dark body work, but yours looks sweet.

                  Where is that bolt from? I dont recognise it lol.

                          Reminds me, I need to take more photos of the interior alcantara pillars that Brian did for me. I think they improve the enviroment you are in. Unfortunately the door cards are not behaving that well but at least I have enough material to redo them if needed.

                          Also my car always looks black but in fact its dark blue. LZ5U

                              Here is a better one.
                              I like the result of the rear lights. Quite subtle.
