Shark Fin

So I decided to go ahead with this and it seems as if I may be one of the first to do so, which is rather suprising given I've see a few F3x with the same. Name:  20200607_211441.jpg

I think so it helps tie in the rest of the carbon at the back and will look even better when I eventually get the carbon MP spoiler on. The only thing is the protective tape over the adhesive was a PITA to get off and I practically ended up taking half the adhesive pad off with it I only then needed to press the pad back on the fin again but it did do my head in

Yup! It had two 'standard' white strips and 4 of the red and it didn't matter if I used my nails, a blade or even a needle it still had to be half taken off!!
