I want to get hold of the MHW rear smokes, simular to what Dips has on allllll his tourings, so hard to get hold of.....
A few ppl on here mentioned ppl making there own versions of the Hella/Bosch smokes, My brother told me to stick to the originals though....
Money well spent though..!!

i suppose you can always change back if you're not pleased, i think they should still look good. If you decide to sell the reds i'm interested

. your brothers M3 is off the hook, want to see that sometime.

No problems bro, if i can get hold of the smokes and they look better than the red ones, then they are yours..!!! Better Still, If u can source the Smokes, then i'll swap ya..!!

Go into your paypal account, and there should be a disputes/resolution centre. Just follow the instructions, and open a dispute. If it's been over 20days (or 30 not exactly sure) then paypal will skip discussions with the seller, and make a decision for you quite quickly.
I've had a few things not arrive over the years, and managed to get full refunds everytime!
It's not quick, but you do get all the money you paid back.
This assuming you did use paypal.
