i admire from a far.............
nah, i like the textured trim!
i would switch it w/the new JCW trim but thats about it for now.
u dont get bloody cold winters there, like I do around here so it will last u a bit longer then it would me!!
. l00ks killer though .

You will see gaps afterwards. These gaps can be fixed with a 'glue' but it's probably worth doing properly the first time. I would have, if I'd known it would have happened....

I remember the first morning I was in Winnipeg, A mate and I looked outside and saw the sky was blue and thought "that can't be too bad!" - it was 11 Jan! Over there, blue Sky in Jan means COLD!!! Little did we know....haha...
We walked/ran to get breakfast (only a few hundred meters away), and to this day, my ears still tingle in the cold - from the damage I did to them that day!
