    Yesterday has been erased from our memory. Yesterday didn't happen. Live for today.

    I can never tell when you are teasing these days.... All the same colour??? What u onabout?

    Roof graphic is the muts nuts. I have to say, we are very impressed with Carlo. Excellent service, excellent price, excellent quality. Would defo use him again. In fact, he's the ONLY one of all the roof graphic people we called who even had the decency to follow up on our enquiry.:approve:

    Hmmmmmm. Will have another wee looky. I looked under the bonnet and they have attached the brackets about 1" further out than last time. I'm guessing the bonnet stripes were re-aplied then they attached the spot lamps to suit.:approve:

    Aye. Your right Angus. I switched them on while facing the house and they lit up the top of our living room window. Waaaay too high. And the nearside is higher than the offside. I was looking at the fitting again and thinking to myself "WTF is Angus on about, there's no way in hell these spots will move up and down." but then I realised what you mean. That when I slacken off the nut underneath the spots will tip forward or back and left and right. They defo have not been set up right when the car was finished off. Cheers for pointing that out.
