Very nice!
Find that the gold spot look better with that paint scheme.
Well done.

It was to stop stones breaking the headlight,and at the time i heard it could deflect signals from mobile hand operated speed cameras so the police could not get an accurate reading.I have since taken it off as it appears to be untrue.
