Thoughts are (two out of the following three):

* Red power-coated rocker covers with polished ribs and chrome flame-trap and T-bolts (to liven up the under-bonnet area);

* Aluminium clock bezels and Aluminium air-vents (to complement re-veneered dash);

* Specially engraved sill plates.

Plus:

* Locking & standard wheel nut sets (for security and to tidy up the wheels);

* Red sticker set (to return car to original marking scheme - how do you get the old decals off?);

* New number-plates (after original registration put back ... DVLA willing!).

Then hopefully there will be enough left over for an Aluminium ashtray when/if Karl brings them to BBWF.

Now, which would you go for on the "two out of three" deal?

you can remove decals either by doing on a hot day or with hair dryer, or what the trade do is pressure wash, you will need to use tar and glue remover to remove sticky residue, there are companies that will print stickers to your spec from scanning a logo/ design they are extreemly cheap had a set done years ago and did not charge me because he wanted the artwork/logo for future.
