Hi,

If i remove the vinyl from under the bumpstrips wot am i likely 2 find???

i've got some gte sideskirts to ghuck on, jus deciding whether to take it off or leave it!

The car had a respray a few years ago and i dont think the vinyl was replaced when this was done!

Cheers

Whether to remove or leave on the vinyl has been a big topic over the last few months.
Just ask EPO

Paint the sideys black or a really dark grey and they'll look fine with the vinyl on. Leave them grey and they'll stand out like... Britney spears at a slipknot gig lol
