Got it in one mate! oops I had to remove the letters completely because they kept coming off when I was cleaning the car My trademark Bea is no more! Oh well I might get some letters and 'stick them' NOT glue them on before FITP. But firstly thanks Ayesha I will clean the area with those things before sticking the letters on and make sure it's a smooth surface this time!

When I got a bit on my motorbike fitting my heated grips I carefully scraped it away with a very sharp blade then had to polish the area with Autoglem paint restorer then finished off with Autoglem resin polish and it is now not noticeable _________________________ The Mk6 Fiesta grew in size & became a Mk3 Mondeo it now it's shrinking to a Mk3.5 Focus ST3
