cheers

hiya and thanks. witht he alloys i rubbed with sandpaper to get rid of the lacquer and abit of paint. that took ages and was an awful job. i then wend round with small strips to cover the whole tyre. then spraid them. it wasnt too awkward with the tyre just push down the back of the lip of the allloy.
with the badges the front chevrons come off by clips on the back of the grill, and the back i took off by pooring boilded water behind the badges to melt the glue on the foam tape. then carefull wedged a card like a credit card to plise it off. but be careful of scratching the paint.
any other questions u would like to ask?
