Mine only came half off cause as I was park at the gym I must have court the front of the bumper and as I reversed it took half of it off, so that needs to be re sprayed and the underside has some scraps on it.

ooopps  :angry:

I'm still waiting for my Anni front valance. Ordered about a month ago from Damien at DMP but he said they were out of stock until June, so then I ordered from Awesome, who then in turn said they were out of stock until April / May. Couldn't be bothered to cancel the order so I'm still waiting. Handy really, as when I got back from holiday, some Muppet had cracked both my wing mirror covers and stole the glass, so I have fresh covers ready for painting at the same time in my room.

I'm getting impatient though, especially as the nice weather is coming!
