Flat Eric usually rocks the rear window or sits strapped in the back! I've had him for yearrrrrrrrrrs unsure if you can buy them anymore, he always gets funny looks kids always point and stuff when I'm driving, suppose he also provides a little entertainment for them things like that made boring journeys for me as a kid a little more interesting lol!

Iphone pics alert but here they are... centre caps aren't my cup of tea being carbon wrapped, so I'll be replacing these if the wrap comes off and they are shoddy looking underneath.
Unfortunately couldn't fit them because my stock pug locker broke. Got to get them drilled out tried numerous ways of getting them off but nothing worked, well we managed to get 2 off.
So here they are sitting in my front room, I cleaned them and sealed them with Dodo Juice Supernatural Hybrid.
Had to strip the rear to pick them up! might keep it like that for a while. Pops and bangs are far louder and the car seems a little quicker due to the shed weight.
Stock 180 alloys with tyres are 17kg per corner
Team d's are 6.9 + tyres = 15kg
So saved around 1.2 stone in weight.

Just to let you know, 6kg isn't even 1 stone, I think it's 6.4kg to a stone or something mate.
