That sticker has been on there for 6 years. Was going to take it off but thought it would look better than having slightly faded wording in the paintwork!
The misses hit her sisters car when she was working at a garage. The chap tried to beat it out but I think it looks worse!

The lights were easy it was the fogs that I found hard to split. I was worried about doing it but it was not as bad as i thought and the finished product looks so much better! The weather wasn't in my favour for spraying either. Took nearly 2 weeks for the perfect day.
Anton yes I primered them they have been given a few coats of gloss black spray. No lacquer. Same as my badge.

Not the most glossy finish but that's the mask before it went in.
The lens hides any minor imperfections.
