    Greig great job. But have to be honest and say that with your carbon scoop and the carbon vinyal just don't mix. The vinyal looks dull and even when it's got a coat of lacquer on it it just dosent compare as you dot get the depth you get with carbon. All IMHO ofcourse

    that stuff looks Greig, I would agree with William on this a bit though and say that as long as you have all your bits done with it (and not some genuine Carbon) then it will match much better. maybe worth getting your old scoop out and covering it... Then you could get the ££ back on the genuine carbon scoop to pay for the 3m stuff...

    Great job tho, let me know when you want to do some of my car...

    Cheers Craig. Once I finish I should be an expert so if anyone wants some stuff done I'm sure I can sort something out.

    Very neat at the back of the Ring, missed you had the CF scoops on the car.



    I like the Rings done in this on your car as it has the black wheels, Grille, I just think it would out of place on my Mini for example that has all the chrome.

    Were your original Mirrors White as seen in the last pic's and you got Blue covers?

    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    Cheers, it is easy to do as it does look dark/black.

    need to sort your scoop out to match the rest. Looks Good.

    I have real CF light rings front and rear: CF boot handle: CF indicator scuttles: CF Mirrors. I am a CF whore but I think I have it about right for the outside don't be tempted to do to much.
