How is it wearing then?

I liker the look of it on the window finishers - does it stick ok to the rubber? What size did you use - 12mm looks to be about right to me...

Thanks

Still looking fine,

Some of the guys at Gaydon where having difficulty in finding the stuff from their local Halfords, so here a pic of what they look like.

I have had a pm requesting a few details on fitting the bling on a roll, so for anyone else here are a few pics and details, they may not be the best way, but it's how I did it.

Tools used where a new blade in a stanley knife, to cut the roll and white spirit to clean the trim and window rubbers.
The strip on the front door and tailgate where trimed in situ, on the rear door I use a piece of the brown adhesive backing tape as a template to cut both the adhesive strip and the chrome strip.

All ends (apart from the rear door quarter light end), where trimed to give a chisel / chamfered edge.
more picture in my gallery if needed.

Thanks Shiny, it was me who PM'd you and appreciate the pics. I got the 9mm stuff and did mine last night, I think it looks great but then I would!

Going to take a few pics of the car this weekend so will post up then.

Cheap bling

Very Happy I had some spare from the two rolls Moose got for me - so I used it on the snorkel clamp & across the top of the windscreen. Laughing
