I must admit I am useless at DIY so I would have taken Ajs' advice and got the bodyshop peeps to fit mine. Otherwise I would have ended up in the same position.

Right ok, for all you want to know what happend people.

I trial fitted it as it was going to get painted. it was held on with 4 self tappers in the wheel archs and 3 along the front, i was going to bond itafter paint also.

normal driving it was fine, but on the way back from swimming it got up 2 70 and it just flung off under the car and i drove over it and so did many other cars behind me, theres no damage to my car that im aware of at the moment.

Just damage to my wallet

im glad alot of you found this funny, i did slightly untill i realised how shite it looked without it again

Glad there wasn't a bike behind you.
Or I reckon you could have seen it off.

Lucky.

I know I shouldn't but it's the sort of thing that would happen to me too. Sorry mate and I hope the dent in the wallet isn't too bad.
