😂 go for a drive with them in.... you can get stickers for the lenses now that can be removed with ease if to occasion arises.

A massive thanks has to go out to David at Volkstrim for his professionalism & standard of work. As he says his fussy... didn't like it... pull part of most of it out... just to line little dots haha I wouldn't have noticed.

Don't let her fall on that Country Buggy. Any paint left over for it??

I was hoping the CB would slot inside so I could take it home 😂

Do you mean is there any of the Red paint leftover?

bevoracing · 18 Feb 2016, 5:48 pm

Yes, I thought the CB was yours, it would look good in Jaffa Red.
If you don't own the CB, or the hoist, or the workshop, then there's only 1 thing to say, "Bugger".
