doesn't look symmetrical mate, if you look at the roof strips the squares next to them on both sides dont match

Yup was going to say that, slightly impossible to get them symmetrical when the roof isnt.
I tried my best though, it was abit of a logistcal nightmare to say the least.

to be fair you done a good job doing it on your own but i dont think it suits your car, would have put more euro stuff on then done that nearer the end.

copying ? maybe, yes luke was the first to put a checkerd roof on his corsa on this site and yes it DOES look shit hot, BUT the style is taken from the vag scene so in theory it cannt be called a copy?
but you know what is a copy and what i feel is taking something too far
now i guarantee this post will piss someone off, but i think that is taking things one step too far ...

*sigh*
yeah i know what you mean, i tried that, but i had to start on one of the sides, as everytime i started in the middle i couldnt get the first block straight, and if the first one isnt the the rest are going to be way out aswell.
So i needed a starting point.
