For you 2 dogs, I went down the same road as you, looked into it and the price scared me off. When you open the books up stick my name down for a few bits. Rocker cover etc.

How does it work? Are you able to do designs from a print or photo?

. You CAN get your own design made up … most people just buy off the shelf . I’ve seen bespoke ( your design) from around £25 per meter

Did the front of the slam panel in forge carbon.
It’s still wet from the rinse in the picture.
