0.99 p tailgate modification

Decided to a small modification to the tailgate handle as it was starting to look a bit faded and dull.

Basically bought an A4 sheet of matt black sign writing vinyl off eblag for the princely sum of 99 pence.

Bit tricky but managed to make some stencils of the Land Rover lettering, neatly cut the vinyl and stuck straight on.

Surprisingly quite pleased with the result, even swmbo was impressed until she looked really closely.

Got the idea off D2BC where a lot of the lads were doing this to the bumper lettering

Thumbs Up shame they've stopped doing them on D2BC as I'm sure they're the same size and reflective. Sad

Mine was looking a bit faded and 'stuck on' so I sprayed the whole thing body coloured.

I bought one of those as well but the wife thought it looked a bit too 'chromy'

Must put it in the for sale section. Martyn
