there has to be an easy way of doing this without fucking shit up?

vauxhall maybe have a template? or someone knows someone who can fit them?

id rather avoid a bodyshop as it will be expensive.

or is it DIY'able. my dads a top bollocks mechanic and is working at princess yachts atm (where my apprenticeship is) so is bodging stuff all day so maybe we can managae?

tips or tutorials would really help

this is a good easy idea and works well but when you want to remove them you will have trouble.

Cut them off with a cheese wire like you would do if you were cutting off a window.
