I'll probably do that once I get another handle. I just wanted to confirm what gloss would be like. Not quite happy with the finish.

Standard. Hasn't been polished yet. It looks to have a bit of pitting on it.

So much awesomeness. How does the ZA badge attach to the car and I am guessing it goes on the boot?

Cheers guys Smile I haven't figured that out yet Vinay. Nah, I want to attach it near the bumper.

My uncle had a piece of flat bar bent into an L shape that attached his ZA plate to the bumper mount bracket on his Wolseley 15/50

Need to work out an attachment method for mine.

You could probably use a similar setup mounted to one of the rear overrider bolts.
