Exactly, collecting tomorrow!

The car is going in for ceramic coating on Monday so the boot trims and spoiler trim will be fitted at a later date. But i really wanted the skirts sorting before detailing

Love this! I admit, i like where you have placed the 'M Performance' stickers. Is there a designated location these should be?

Love the wheels too!

Hi All,

Update - car collected - front splitter removed and refitted by an adult.
Skirts removed and re-fitted - also by an adult
Spoiler has been removed and refitted also and looks spot on

Fit is now perfect on all parts.

The damaged parts are on order and when they arrive the car will be going back in to have these fitted.

I heard on the grapevine that the tech who fitted the kit received a formal warning for shoddy workmanship. So i'm pleased to hear they took it seriously!

No photos sadly - the car is now at the detailer for ceramic coating!

Glad to hear it all got sorted as the first 'fitting' was definitely poor.

Sorry for the long delay - fortunately, the dealership managed to rectify all the poorly fitted parts.

Thanks again for all your help and advice!

A few photos now it's been ceramic coated:

Looking very nice indeed. Do I see the electric folding towbar peeking out from underneath the diffuser ? For stealth purposes, I think i'll be wrapping mine black.

Slipmiester Well spotted! I must admit i've never really stared at it. I'm pretty OCD but it doesnt annoy me that much. It seems to be something a lot of people do however...
