Umm, perhaps back to the drawing board for me then :|

There is a place right near were our TinTop is that does vinyl decals (and "wraps" :shock: ). The guy there said they can help design a stripe and show what it would look like on a computer screen. He said a stripe like the silver grey "zig zag" (ish) one on our Leisure drive, but (perhaps) in green, would cost about £160 in total. I might go that route.

Every time I see pics of your vehicle I admire the upholstery. As we are in the process of deciding where to get ours done can I ask who did yours.

Dam, why do the good ones always seem to pack in when you want them :D :D By the way I should have said I admire the rest of the vehicle as well, you must have spent or are maybe still spending as many hours on it as I do ours.

Not just me..the wife enjoys it too, not forgetting friends and an old school mechanic.. for the mechanical jobs that require specialist tools, like spraying and welding.
Owning a T25 is like running a small business :D
