Why would you want to hang onto some old pieces of plastic trim like that John, I will do you a favour and take them off your hands mate, buddy. pal. I know, some will call me a mug for offering to take them, but if can help you de-clutter your home...then I'm a mug :whistle:
This is the reason I have you down as a true gent Firebobby, such a generous offer, but we will have a problem, you see I would insist on paying the postage, how could I possibly ask you to pay it AND help me de-clutter, and being the utter gent you obviously are you would refuse to accept my postage offer, and I insist, so we're stuck, I'll just have to keep them and put up with it....hey ho, we all have an axe to grind... :roll:

Yep - owned a set for a while. Picked them back up off the road a couple of times, put them in the bag in the boot then sold them...

I could suggest an F-Type as they are built in and are the first/last item that raises and closes with the roof to do the job. That's how it should be

Your cars worth more than £100 isn't it :P
For bits of plastic, they do seem to fetch stupid money. I wonder how many are just sitting in previous owners sheds and attics, gathering dust or have been binned :cry:
Now worth at least £170 and 3 days to go:

I'll need some heavy heavy collateral as insurance dude, this is serious s**t we're dealing with here.

Ok this is how the exchange will take place:

On neutral open ground not known by either of us.
Supporting jet fighters will keep a 5 nautical mile no-fly zone around the exchange site.
Snipers will be strategically placed around the perimeter at gaps of 50 meters.
Two armoured trucks carrying 'X' side covers and 'Y' CSL's will be backed up to each other ready for transfer accompanied by 5 armed guards each.
At precisely 12 noon the exchange will take place, X and Y respectively will be loaded into the opposing trucks at exactly the same time with all 10 sub machine guns cocked and safety catches off.
Once the exchange has taken place each truck will be escorted in opposite directions to a perimeter of 1 nautical miles under armed guard where after they are free to leave to return to their respective base.
Once 'X' has been used for moulding purposes they will be returned under exactly the same transfer conditions where upon 'Y' will be returned, and after examination of each the transfer will take place as above.

Any attempt to steal the side covers and you'll never see your CLS's alive again....capeesh..??
