Will get round to taking some more soon…

Here’s the skid pan as it came to me:



My paintwork:



A before:



And an after, 5 fixing holes at the bottom that locate into the existing fixtures under the bumper and 3 more you have to make at the top (yes I cr@pped myself Pewters):

You know my thoughts fella

You know the score, spent a fortune on the arches, then the iPhone, then this skid pan (and an iPad shortly). Had to try saving somewhere. The job is 'acceptable'. With a better laquer finish it would be perfect but £80 backhander or £19 DIY. No brainer for me at the mo...

Looks good Sanj, I take it you imported the skid pan? Did you get stung by customs?

I think you forgot to mention road tax, council tax, water, electricity, gas, baby milk etc etc.

We all feel so sorry for you

That smiles aimed at me then???

Looks brilliant - I am desperate for one of these, given how hard they are to get hold of you should have made a mould before you fitted it and could have sold them on ebay!

Where did you get yours from ?
