I love that colour by the way ...very Astonian and that picture shows it very well ...That car had a heat formed M&W 550 Screen fitted which was a nice piece of kit but a bit pricey at around £130 from memory ...I am looking at heat formed screens for the next one and Chris at Tribute has pointed me towards someone who can do it for me ...
