Metal kick plates (mint condition) - Will pay GBP300.00

Post by **simonc** » Sun May 15, 2016 9:26 am

Thanks to a very smooth transaction with @Dennis van dijk in the Netherlands, I am now the proud owner of a pair of stunning metal kick plates.
Dennis sent them a couple of weeks ago and I've been anxiously watching the progress on the Post NL website.
This notification from the site yesterday made my day.

Unfortunately I was working, but when I got back home, this was the package waiting for me.

Great packing job Dennis

And lo! Here they are. Robert Dazzlers eh?

I'm so happy with them, they look absolutely brilliant and really are in mint condition. Big thanks to Dennis, an all round splendid chap and a real gent to deal with. Thanks Dennis, these really are a lovely addition to my car.

You know me so well, Nick As I'm off today, Jason will be getting an unscheduled visit with a request for him to fit them. Only if he's wearing cotton gloves though

It should be the law that all Preludes have them fitted. They look lovely.

Cheers guys. I'm a bit cheesed off as I was 'summoned' to help out a client yesterday, so haven't had anytime to see Jason.
Not as hectic today, so hopefully he will pop up and clip 'em in.

Honestly Simon, this genuinely is within your capability

You just grab em with both hands near each out end and give them a sharp tug upwards. They will pop off.
Refitting just means making sure you get the sides the right way round, lining them up with the clips and smacking them with your palm. ET voila! Job done

@wurlycorner. How can I thank you Iain? Actually, first thing this morning I saw your post and as I've been unable to meet with Jason all of last week, I took your advice, and to my utter amazement, I did it.

Et voila indeed...

Et encore voila...

Thank you so much Iain, I'm so thrilled they're in but even more thrilled that thanks to your direction, I actually did something on my own...wonders will never cease

Cheers Iain, you're a star
