I've been booting it for years with no problems. Most components aren't made out of toffee you know... Stop worrying. It's a 1.6, not a 700bhp Skyline.

Please be honest, I'm not bothered either way. They can come off rather easily.

I'm not feeling them... but the pics are a bit close up so it's hard to gauge how they look against the rest of the car tbh

noooo it's the transition from stationary to moving that causes the strain, not, moving from low speed to high speed.
700bhp skylines have typically better transmissions than a french hot hatch... psa car internals are made of Toffee... they're french, after all.

That's cool. A few thumbs down so far. I'm guessing they'll be coming off shortly.

The front left one is a tad scewif.
I think they're gonna have to come off!
Damn, took me SO long to fit too, as they were just square pieces of plastic to start off with, and no easy way to attach them. Bugger... 
Ads, can't really do that know, as I'm back at my flat and I'd have to go drive somewhere. Can't be arsed.

Im 50/50 mate, they look smart with the rims, and obviously youve got a high specced car so they fit in that respect.
But the fact its a track car and not a rally car, and that theyll most likely fade and look a bit turd before long puts me off?

I feel your pain dude, I know how much of a pain they are to fit. I was seriously having a tantrum doing mine.
Anyhow, Toad.. You need to refit them thats all Im saying lol!
I thnk you have way too much material poking out the sits too. You seriously dont need it to be that OTT. Just neat and subtle.
