That’s very nice!
I see you also ditched the door badges and got the MK8 wing badges. I did the same thing recently. Much better.

Hi there, yeah, thought the blade badges look much more pleasing to the eye !
(Even better now I've put them in the right place since I took the pics 😄 )

Nice grey btw 👌

Ah I see you had them positioned up too high  :grin:

Where did you get the CS logo for the rear door?

Here she is. Just driven home from Sheffield to Stockport. Opened her up a couple of times. Still smiling now.

The moonstone looking glorious in the sunshine Monkeymagik. Congrats  :cool:

I’m more impressed by the spiral privet though!


Interesting to see your car is on Bridgestones as I’ve seen a raft of newly registered 8.5’s on Hankooks over the last few weeks.
