I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but if you are tempted don't bother they don't fit properly!!!!!

Do not buy it !
These keys are from a very soft metal ! It is very possible to break inside the keyhole ! This will be a Very annoying situation....

I have one on my car.
Its sh$t.

When you accelerate it spills fuel down the side of the car.
Driving slower so it doesn't happen is not an option.

I will be changing it later this year.

They do look nice though, shame.

Not sure I like that massive sticker down the side of yours, did that go too!?

Mine had a big GTE sticker too - hiding dodgy paint laughing

Sticker has been there since it was new so would imagine it is not hiding anything but the rear spoiler and chrome GB badge were next on the hit list to be binned

Fuel cap is a matter of taste but like Ash`s it did not seal properly so another reason to bin it

Yeah a bit marmite caps like that. Mine had a dimmer one but is goosed and tatty but I liked it. Managed to find a brand new boxed replacement now. Thinking colour coding it or going anthracite/ gunmetal with it.
