Come on guys, I only have 2 left..!  They are a stunning addition to anyone's car, either on the engine cover or as Mark has done and added one to the fuel filler cap.

Not sure any more will get produced any time soon, so once these last 2 have gone, that's it for the foreseeable future...!

Don't miss out

So
Just thought I'd post a new picture with the lettering painted in

Looks a completely different and amazing (if I do say so myself)

They really do look the business....

Glad I've got one  ;D [thanks Lee].
If it doesn't fit first time, use harsh words...!

My engineering friend has been experimenting for me, as I wanted one on my caps to fit in my petrol cap, but it was slightly too big, given the angle my cap sits at

So he's shrunk the aluminium cap slightly and has been playing with logo's ;D

Not finished, yet, but looks great

Your attention to detail is fantastic. There will be no Toyota plastic left at this rate.

Thanks guys, I'm really happy with it, but needs a bit of smoothing out, and polishing

I'll get better pictures when it's done

Anyone else fancy something like this, give me a shout   ;D

Hummmm

Needs bonding to the original petrol cap, but it looks great in there..!

Really happy with this
