    Nice pics

    How easy was it to do the de-locking? Is it as simple as adding the cap?

          First attempt at some Plasti Dipping ...........







          Pleased with the results but not 100% convinced on durability. Only time will tell I guess.
          Just need to do the fog surrounds but undecided on doing them on the car or try and get them off without breaking them ? Not the easiest shape to mask/spray with them on the car. How have people got on with spraying them on the car ??

          Cheers

              No, Im leaving the front grille and door handles for a bit of contrast.

              Had to buy 1 complete handle from Citroen, but managed to source a cap without the keyhole on Ebay.

                      It was easier than I thought it would be. You can get the masking tape between the surround and the bumper.
                      The hardest part Ive found, doing it with the bits on the car, is taking the masking tape off without pulling/ripping the plasti dip off the bit you've just sprayed !

                        Thats true- have used a razor blade (Very carefully) when removing some of my masking tape
                        SOLD! Will have a go at mine, weekend

                              I was going to attempt that but played safe using straight lines. How have you found durability Chris ? How does it stand up to washing etc ?
