I just dropped the cap from my oil down here. Image
Some of it melted but managed to get the solid part out. Will it cause any damage?

Great cheers. It was the cap from the bottle. Just wanted to make sure the melted plastic won't damage anything besides the smell

The B piller is an absolute ball ache to get right and found its easier to do the C piller in 2 parts, A piller is simple though

Looks good! Did you just apply it straight to the plastic? Iv been told use primer first and use heat to apply

f**k me that sun strip looks like it takes up half your window screen! Aha! That wrap does look good but I would have used matte black but that's just a personal opinion :)

I cut to size set it over it and applied with a hair dyer, took an evening to do it all

I plan on doing it again in gloss black when im spraying the roof linning, only went for carbon as i got a big roll for 99p and wanted to practise lol

Sun stripe goes down to where the sun visor blocks so doesnt really affect driving atall, its definitly illegal but i sit low down so its not even in my view of the road
