Re: My Sei Any Ideas?

get a foglight, but i am aware how difficult it can be to get one on its own

Loose the rear window sticker.

The cheapest and easiest mod has yet to be done.....de badge it. Its free!

Yes on the rear

The front one has a bolt through it, so you would have to smooth that over should you wish to de-badge the bonnet

Re: My Sei Any Ideas?

i see i may have a go at that, i was also thinking about a new backbox this would mean cutting the current backbox off and attatching the new one? or would it be better to get a full system?

Re: My Sei Any Ideas?

Depends on your budget.

Dont forget to consider the custom exhaust route also.

Have a search on forum plenty of threads regarding exhausts

Re: My Sei Any Ideas?

yeah them kits are crap, its best done with static electricity you get a much better coverage.

the glue that is supplied with them kits is naff. you use a 2part epoxy resin which has pigment added to it to match the colour of the flock you are using, the resin also allows better adhesion of the flock and will also allow the flock to be wet wiped if something is spliied onto it.

the epoxy resin is sprayed on to get a much better even coat. i wouldnt waste money on them kits because the fibres shed due to the fact that the fibres do not hit the glue "end-on" and the glue is simply not strong enough or designed to last for a substantial period of time.
