Anyone fitted these to a white car, and if so any pics please? Not sure how they will look on a white car.

Hahahah!!

They are strips which 'seal' the gap between the bonnet and the front wing. They look pretty smart, and are a nice touch. They look smart on Red cars for sure. :wink:

As Simon says (put your hands on your head) they are good for keeping crap (leaves) out of your engine bay!
