Yea, there hideous but on the right car i can see them being that finishing touch you normally just cant find! Well done on the win. And keep the packaging, could be worth alot more with the arches in the future. A box on its own would be worthless though, mind :lol:

Yeah, would have to suit the right car, would look wrong on my little 850 :lol:

But, as they say, dare to be different! :D

P.S. Nice avatar piccie craig :thumbsup:
