Default Day Trip

Thought I'd take my car somewhere different to get some photos today!

So, took a drive over to foxton locks just down the road


The first few photos were in a really open area in full sun

Then I found some shade and the last few I think came out pretty well!






























What do you guys think?

It's more a case of hiding the stone chips

I didn't think it was too expensive to be honest

As for how they look, I like them Wouldn't have bought it otherwise

Looking good

Agreed on the bra thing... Way I've always seen it, so what if there's a couple of chips? It's better to have a couple of generally invisible marks than a whopping great hemroid on the bonnet that's visible miles off, and you don't cover the rest of your car with leather if you get a little mark

Yeah, with the bra thing, like everything else, it's down to personal preference I guess...

...I like the leather hemroid look for the bonnet
