Get the smaller one from Breeze, it will give you more windscreen realestate.

Plastidip is good, I covered two small holes on my soft-top over the weekend :D

I vinyl-dyed mine black which looks much better than the beige/grey colour it came as - when I hand it back there might be a few eyebrows raised since it's not reversible like plasti-dip (it should last longer in the QLD sun than plasti-dip though).

Agree Dale, those they are using must be so out of date! I thought that black thing above went out with the '54 Zephyr 6!!

Thank you Pam,
For a little while I thought that I was the only one.

Now if I can just get my mirror ball from the kitchen ceiling and mount it into my car.
When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?
