Ladies & Gents, I bring mostly good news but I do have a little bit of bad too.


I will start with the bad
Out of 11 plates 3 have some slight scratches on done before anodising.

Have a look at the pics first. I will offer a refund of £10 for those who choose to accept them. 2 reds and 1 black. The scratches are coloured so its not that bad.

pics.








I chose to laquer mine to see if I could hide the scratches on mine




Let me know if you are willing to accept the slightly scratched ones and I will refund a tenner.

PM me all your addys with the colour you asked for and if you you want a slight scratch for a discount.

Cheers

What's the good news?


Sorry They look pretty good Bri, aren't you getting your engine done this weekend too?

I'm not sure about a scratched one, but i may be fine with it, i'll see if anyone else wants the discount first (mine is a red one)

How did the lacquering work Bri?

Still trying the laquer just done second coat. It hasnt hid the scratches unfortunately but it has made the colour deeper and glossy

They are pretty good to be fair, just a sham they didnt turn them over as the back side of the scratched ones are good which is a bit of a shame.

them scratches aside they are nice. Black ones are sweet. I was told Blue is the hardest to do as the dye can go patchy.

Will do a second group buy and I will make sure they use the best face up next time or have them brushed.

They're looking great.

Did they manage to do the recesses on the flip side?

No recess. After trying them on several 3 ludes we decided there was no need. It would of cost more too as it would take more time setting machines to do that.

Honestly no need for them, trust me.

Fittin is easy enough, just be aware you need to lift the handle bonet catch to get the plate in.

To maintain the finish use WD 40 on some tissue or any oil base product. Ive just wiped mine down with thinners and sprayed laquer on. Will post pics of mine when its finished.

This is mine with a coat of laquer

They look real good mate

Forgot to ask, do they come with bolts to fasten then down?

Bloody hell do you want me to fit them too?

No bolts, just the plate. The lude has bolts there already, just clean them up or or spray them.

aww would ya Bri?


That's cool, just checking, i need to grab Dave's mats and this plate soon, hmm, anything happening in Wales over the next weekend or so?

My engine goes back to gether next weekend

Well fancy that.... hmm, might have to make some excuse to, uh, see that happen, or something

Know when or what day yet? Not entirely wanting the same thing as last time to happen

If u got a scratched one that no one wants and need to sell it, first dib's on buying it

It'll match the 'NOT MINT' look of my lude

thanks' stu.

woooooo! when do we get these then ???

Later this week. Just getting some packaging and I still need you lot to pm me your addys. got 3 so far.
