Make poverty history cheaper mods now!

It wont look as bad when i get the spoiler back from paint (if the guy doesnt forget to paint it again) ,i also have some Smoked side reps and an opel bootlock badge but i think i will c/code the door handles and bootlock before fitting the new badge

I used Autoglym bug and tar remover for the badges took about 5 mins and i also used it on the rubstrips which took approximately 4 hours as i didnt have a heat gun or toffee wheel but it was worth it
