Does anyone on here have any interest in these?

I bought them as an experiment hoping they might be able to be adapted for my Granturismo, but have now learnt that the grill on my GT bends the opposite way to the grill on a Quattroporte. As a result they are of zero use to me, but before I chuck them in the bin wandered if anyone wants them?

I hand painted mine using Humbrol Enamel paint and touched up the side badges and front trident with red. I prefer it on the leading edge and not on the whole fin like the above clip on numbers.

I think this is what I'm going to have to do.. did you pick particular colours?

Quite like the look of that.
With that touch plus the carbon bits it will lift an already nice looking car.

I might investigate these for my Ghibli. Not sure I'm brave enough with the paint :) I think they look great though.

Thanks for the link. I'll think I'll risk it for less than £30.

That's what I figured, and I liked the idea that I could take them off again if I didn't like it, or I wanted to return the car to its original spec.

Am now trying to work out if it would be worth (if I can be bothered to look into) getting some made for the Granturismo by a 3D printer...
