forgot to mention they are just black sticky on's that stick over the normal red s badge.

P.S. how would you like to buy a whalen gear shift gear knob to fit on the short shifter assuming you still have it fitted. Much better than the alta one I put on.:D

AH i shall return the car to red badges then.

I quite like the Alta gear shift knob and love the short shifter kit as it's a dream to change gear with (apart from reverse)

As for the two bucket system mmmm i use one soapy to wash and one clean for the megs drying cloth, Which i take is wrong? you will need to enlighten me on this one.

p.s. what did you use to wax the car with?

check Wul car care thread on cleaning products and the two bucket routine.

If you like the Alta Knob you will love the Whalen one as I'm sure some folks can verify.:) plus it has the mini wings with a S logo and all the gear postions.

Let me know if your interested.
