Just red electrical tape. i stuck a peice down to the base of the handle, then used a craft knife to cut the excess of, and then just rolled 2 peices into a tiny roll, then stuck them down. Looks really good.

Bah, RAC Direct would refuse to insure you instantly. The excess weight would affect the handling of the car totally and make it unroadworthy. Bollox!   :grin:

But seiously, that looks great!  :wink:

was thinking of adding white to mine, looks good, but i think a more vivid red would look better (something more like the tornado red it should be)
