i wanted it to look like the S was just there really,

yes alot of prep, as you can see by the date on the first pic but i did snap the plastic slats so been on the hunt for a new one,

ive perfected spraying with a rattle can now,

ill get pics with it on, (actully i wont as its to cold to put it back on,

no used the same handle although i got one off ebay for the slats between the S as thay break easy,

it was quite fiddly as when you take it apart there is a spring that can pop out,

Top job mate, the badge looks really nice... I agree wiv James Walker about the colouring, I reckon it would look the dogs on my Platinum grey LCR.

No I haven't done mine yet.

Need to try and find where I've put my spare, ooppss!
I will be leaving the plastic it's 'natural' colour and going for a black S I think (to match the front, minus the stone chip before anyone says!).
