Not cheap at all, the thought of $20-$30 got me excited damn it!

Is that something you attach to the tyre?

so for 20-30 bucks it does the job? You have it on your kg, then it's good enough for me.
Is it stuck on or 'painted' on.
Think I'll get down there and check them out.
Where is that, I can't tell where that numbers is?

The ones Pete is talking about is a thin line on your tyre, which is usually different to whitewalls. Flaps, or whitewall inserts, are usually about
$130 a set, and vary in sizes.
I am looking for 16" flaps.. Not good chances.
