looking good, think im gonna take mine off soon.
I always um and ar about taking the bump strips off tho incase i park next to some careless twit and they open their door right onto the side of my car !!!
Looks worth the risk tho.

Yeh thats a good point lol. i think it looks a lot smoother though, bit of a boring lengthy job getting all the bloody glue off though lol

looks all the much better for it mate, especially on ure red motor, on black ones it aint so bad like.
agreed its a pretty labourious job, n if your unlucky like me they aint just bin stuck on there for those years with the standard 3M backing which comes off with 'relative' ease, oh no, if ur unlucky like me sum t**t has had them off before and stuck them back on with superglue!
and wen u try to remove that the paint comes with it! looks fantastic. not
gettin a full respray towards the end of summer tho, and that is part of the reason why.

Ah tis a grueling job. I done the same with ym fiesta back in the summer of last. My Polos also red so i think ill have to do the same. Though i am fearful of having some drunk mate in the car or somthign and them throwing the door into the next car along or a wall or a small child with a very hard head. *sigh* damn drunks.
Looks nice good job. How long did it take?
