They are. I pick up a deck at the dollar store (pound shop).
They are ideal for the job. As long as you overlap them a bit there is no overspray and you can still get paint onto the lip of the rim.

Hi, today Lagetha got a new smile, thanks to a home-made (not by me!) mesh grill I bought from Paul Rover Man of Project Nigel... And now she is all washed, soon to be vacuumed and interior spot cleaned ready for Gaydon and the National Meet on Sunday.

Finished installing my modified battery tray and new bigger battery in the 260.





What was going through their minds to use 14 x 6mm bolts to hold a tray in ?

My wife got back today from a few days away in Leicester without this bit of the car. So I got on the phone to my local shop and ordered a new one. Will take about 4 days to get it done as the rear plate is special order, and mine for £25. If anyone finds the original somewhere between Leicester & Plymouth please send me a pm!!!

She also reported back that the new tyres I had fitted last Thursday developed a wheel wobble at 58 mph feeding through the steering wheel, fortunately it went away at about 62, so she was relatively unbothered on the motorways. The car otherwise was fine and returned about 45mpg on her 550 mile round trip.
She took into the tyre shop this afternoon, they rebalanced it and all now is ok.
