Cars are like women so it was put very simply. Do you want to come out to play and have some care/money lavished on you, or stay in the garage? Simple laugh

I'm don't normally go for stickers but I thought these might add a nice little finishing touch...









Thanks to Phillpot for the original idea thumbup

If any one wants to copy this, you need to drill the holes for the suckers no more than 55mm from the centre of the disc.

Have to agree with Phillpot, the front looks unbalanced with the smoked lens. IMHO.

You forgot smoked ham of all different varieties...

Darn you Glen! ( BTW all guys in Gothenburg are named Glen)

I just got a "I miss some meat" moment after 3,5 years as a vegetarian angel

Hi Maffe wavey
Season's Greetings!

That's ok, you can have the smoked salmon instead of the smoked reindeer!
Or Aubergine is a good meat substitute.

Yes, I was in Göteborg in 1966.
Those guys are probably my previously unknown grandchildren named after me.

It's good to know that my time there wasn't wasted. sperm
scratchchin I wonder how many Glens there are in Karlstadt, Kristinehamn and Mariestadt?

There are also quite a few whiskies named after me from when I visited Scotland in 1976
smile

Please pass my regards to your Dad.
Hi Harald! wavey

Looks like clear is the way to go. I'll take those grotty and unfashionable rear lights off you; no charge laugh

Joe, I love the low angle from which you have taken this pic, it makes JS0 EPH look like it's going fast even though it's standing still.
Perhaps if you took it from the same angle in a suitable location...

As for the debate, I prefer the clear lenses for the driving lamps, but the smoked indicators and rear lights definitely suit some colours of S, especially silver, grey or white. Or yellow.. Oh, and orange I would imagine, although I've yet to see one in the flesh.*

* Oops, sorry Maffe, I didn't mean to add to your torment!

Perhaps he was being dragged backwards at speed by a confused Polar bear, just as he opened the shutter?

No, but I've got a pair of smoked rear lights for sale which I can guarantee are in good condition......
