yup, ordered them last night, went for the biggest there was and in yellow (goes well with the green!), also got a couple of membership number ones and a web address one to go across the top of the lower tailgate :D been buying some stickers off ebay as well to go on it, and also bought a lightbar!!!

now all thats left is to fit it all, and then fit the tubular bumper on it, then straighten out me steering guard (it wouldnt come off the discovery so i kinda put a strop around it and pulled it off with the V8 lol), and then we are nearly there!

fitted the cb in, just need to fit me stereo inside and that will be all the entertainment i need!

What colour splat do people think would work with a dark grey car? I'm thinking yellow?

May order one when funds are a bit less tight!

Definately yellow, they should only come in yellow!

Those with yellow cars should have to respray so that a yellow splat could be stuck on! lol

I think putting it at an angle like that might be my best bet - it won't be obvious that it's not quite central that way!  :lol:

Seriously, my main worry would be getting a big vinyl like that on straight and without bubbles in it. I know about using soapy water to make it slide into place then patting it down with a soft cloth, but still!

How about getting one and putting it on the inside of your bonnet?
