Good idea, with the economy going down the toilet, that's your pension sorted... 8)

...and congratulations on the 5k :thumbsup:
 
I wouldn't go out topless without mine.

As one Yorkshireman to another, are we allowed to ask ?
HOW MUCH :D

Got them for £150 buy it now on Ebay- good honest seller who put buy it now on to meet the requests for a close early auction. Know I won't use them much but like to have them as my car is a keeper.
 
Congrats from me too.
- Is the 5k the number of posts, or the current E-bay value for the covers ?

Not too bad then didn't a set go for £190 .
Bugger Premium bonds better to invest in these :roll: :roll:
I think you'll use them quite a bit I don't like the look of my car roof down without them :thumbsup:

In the past I think you mentioned spaying black.What paint did you use?as I sprayed mine and and the colour doesn't quite match the roof.

Iknow- when they were available from the dealer I always thought they were daftly priced- now that seems like a bargain! :rofl: The £190 set I am suspicious of as he now has the same ones up for sale and they also made circa £190. He claims the he has more than one set, I think he is trying to bump sold prices before he really sells. This seller was very honest and fair and they are literally brand new with the instructions and velcro fitting strip.

I'll pop down the shed and have a look at the make on the tin later, but it was a damn good match.

No nonsense Matt black acrylic spray from screwfix is what I used and colour match is very good.

Congrats on the Lifer status Paddy - over 8 years served; a proper Lifer :wink:
You are a lifer too Marlon- think that comes in about 3k :poke: Was away from the forum for a while but loved being back over the last year- not least as it meant I got my z back out of the garage! :driving:

Mine match the other vinyl in the car (Door Sills, Dash, etc) not the roof itself.
- I wonder if anyone has actually covered them with a black cloth or even a piece of old roof fabric from a scrapper ?
