[XStephyX]

mines passed 22 years in a row with 2 different strips on and the 1st was lower than this 1 thats on now.
Yea get a squeegy or a card like bank card dnt use 1 of importance tho lol
And soapy water in a spray bottle keep spraying it on as u go

Sunstrips look shit.

[XStephyX]

every 1s got their own opinion tho

[saxo_simo]

true just got it cut it out then it started rainin and i got sum ultra blue side lights aswell look mint

[edwcorst]

i personally think they only look good on a black car as it doesnt stand out to much but like said if you like then do it :) what colour you gone for?

[Krys_23]

The subtle one's are fine like a light shade yeah, had one on my mauritius.

[J222JRA]

ive got one, its just tinting film on the inside and imo it looks awesome

aye mine was window tint and it doesnt stand out as bad + the normal sunstrips are normally dull looking

[J222JRA]

normal strips fitted on the outside are just gash.

[saxo_simo]

i gone for black on the outside i will update pics when done

[Krys_23]

Similar strip to mine James but mine was a little lighter.

Depending on the MOT centre will decide whether or not your car will pass with a sunstrip that falls below the top of the windscreen wiper line. They are usually more leniant with text as it's not a complete block and you can still see through it. Similar to tinting film. But if you do go for a "legal" strip, which is about 1.5-2" deep, it'll look sh*t :)

Is ur sunstrip lower than mine simo?.If not should be fine on ur mot cuz my old 1 was lower down.

[mattygoulding]

i got a black one on mine, dint no that it'll fail a m.o.t but i'll c how it goes ages til m.o.t anyway

[davidandrews5343]

if the wiper blade touches it then its a fail

[XStephyX]

must depend on who u go 2 my wipers covered the first 1 and most of the 1 i got on now and mines passed.

[JEEMO]

Get smaller wiper blades if it touches.

[bristol-boy-tom]

i wud go for black..
and i think they will only fail mot if the wipers can touch it..

[VTR-GAZzA]

they look nice but can be chavy

[J222JRA]
