I cannot post a picture but it is all first class quality!


Like that one - little bit more in the UK due to the dreaded VAT. It also looks like they do a black belt, and an option of a chrome buckle, although I couldn't see on their website how I could select that configuration. I used their online contact form to enquire, but 24hrs+ later, still waiting for a response!


Unfortunately that was my experience, nobody ever returned my calls, I gave up in the end ooo

I have just received an automated email saying'you have not completed your order'.

Perhaps indicative of their focus.....

Exactly, I had one on my car when I purchased it.

After a rebuild and full repaint, I never fitted the bonnet strap again for that reason.


That's why I suggested PPF film under the belt, no scratching job done smile



To avoid scratching, I regularly undo the belt and clean under it with rapid detailer.

Seems to work; after 10k I can't see any scratches.

If anyone is so worried about scratching paint under the belt, apply paint Protection film under the belt, its near invisible, especially if you trim it to the width of the belt. These flat areas are so easy to install, it’s the areas such as wings with sharp curves where it can be more tricky.

I use off cuts from a supplier I know, but I find some here

Don't forget to give it a good smear of Nikwax waterproofing wax for leather before it rains.

Got very excited when my shiny new belt arrived, which quickly diminished when I discovered they'd sent me a double buckle belt.

Have emailed and hopefully will be sorted soon.

I think it's just a mistake in the 'picking and packing department'. Just a little disappointing as I'd had an email exchange with the parts guy prior to my order, who said he sort it and make sure I got the right thing.....
