Mate,

About those polished alloys, I know of a focus owner on another site who purchased a set of the snow flake ones and had them fitted for 6 months over the winter months, I'll get some pics for you, the results of road salt and freezing conditions blisterd the chrome coating resulting in them looking like a broken mirror.

I'll search for the thread on another forum now and bring the pics to here for you to see.

polished alloys are useless in the uk fine in america where its warm and no salt but the salt on road crap will tear those alloys to bits

  • Author

Been trying to tell him what i think but cant get throught to him he is fixed at getting silver he will get them in 1 week time when he gets payed il upload some pic when he gets it done.

25 percent insurance hike for viper stripes just make sure he informs the insurance

  • Author

mate said he spoke to his insurance comapny and it goes up by 5% only. I no there a company out there where you can buy the ford overlay but custom ones which you can design yourself on the website with differnt colour or writing on the badge, does anyone no the name of the company i cant seem to remember the name.

Don't DMB do custom colour viper stripes? If not, think I saw ok youtube the other day a place that did em, when I'm back at a computer I'll try n find out where it was.

dmb have the custom stripes only 5 last year it was 15to20
