mine are on Bahnstormers now, they are secure enough and fit quite well if you prep the surface properly before hand mate.

There are pictures in the link

Not anymore unfortunately! :thumbdwn:

As they were second-hand I had to renew the double sided tape on them before fitting. Unfortunately I made a bodge of it and finished up with the leading edge bottom corner of one of the covers not stuck properly.

Result was that, on the motorway, the airflow got under the corner, there was a tearing sound (bit like velcro) and a split second later one of the covers was seen in my rear view mirror bouncing down the road. :eek:

Had to take the rest of the off and have not replaced them. This mishap naturally ought not happen with brand new ones.

PS. Here's a pic on the car taken in the short time the were fitted;-

Mine (Fuffmeister's) were Milotec Carbon Fibre style. I have considered getting real carbon fibre sheet with 3M sticky, but not got round to it yet.

Also have them (Milotec carbonstyle) on my silver estate. Fitted them in cold weather, but heated the pillars and parts first before fitting. Cleaned the surface first and then stuck them on. If you are not able to get the surface warm or hot, they wont stick as they should.

Up to now, none of the parts flew away. Not even at >155mph, and they are still on for over 50000miles now.
