Magnets....You might as well give the number plate to a car identity thief then, save him the hassle of bending over  :laugh: :laugh:

Because it's really difficult to unscrew two screws or pull off trim tape isn't it?  :rolleyes:

Besides, back one is screwed on and I'll just stick it in the windscreen parked up.

I'm not saying screws are harder, but at least they're not as easy, even if it's for some chavs wanting to have a laugh.
Oh and having to walk to the front, remove numberplate and stick it in windscreen might get you some odd looks from sane people  :kiss:

Ask DMonday, I'm sure he gets some off looks too, but hey that's a pretty sick car.

So the paint supplier "dropped" off the paint today:



 :laugh:

First time he's ever been known to do it and on my paint lol. Tis OK tho, best one out of the three for him to drop because we needed the other two lol.

The remains:


 :cool:

Handy in some ways as no crap got into the paint and so it's handy for basecoating etc which will be good.

Tailgate repaired:


Very thin spread of filler, deeper in one spot. Didn't flush the wiper as it didn't really appeal to me plus I didn't want to be messing about but now vaguely wondering if I should have lol.

Small ding on the wing:


That was all that's wrong with the car.  :smiley:





Forgot about the numberplate light.  :rolleyes: :embarassed:

So just quickly masked and will take them both off tomorrow, badge is off too.

Well happy.  :smiley:

EDIT: Just seen the numberplate tape, I pulled all that off and it's shown through  :shocked:

Get it off tomorrow, doesn't need primer over there anyway.  :cool:
