  • Customising fog light covers

    Afternoon all, it's been a while since my last post, very busy etc...(You get the idea)!
    I am contemplating doing some minor cosmetic tweaks by adding 3-6mm red pinstriping around the fog light covers, across the lower front grille and across the black plastic trim on the bottom of the rear bumper.
    I have experimented but can't seem to get it to stick properly; does anyone have any suggestions as to why?

    Try giving the area a good clean with a bit of brake cleaner on a cloth to get rid dirt/contaminants/wax.

        For the centre splitter the "U" shaped piping with a bit of glue and some pegs to hold it on while it sets
