I was going to take off the black blob at the back but had second thoughts. What was interesting, I took off the front number plate and the plates is simply screwed into the front bumper bar, there are no mounting points/ bolt holes. Therefore was thinking if required you could simply replicate that st the back, ie just some self tapers. I think the double sided tape would be preferable though.
Mate the car looks awesome. How was the dealer polish. I just fixed mine yesterday getting rid of the dealer supplied swirl marks.
Barneyridge,
I did evactly that and mounted the plate on some little plastic washers front and back to keep the plate strait and changed the covers. As For the polish I couldn't fault it. I had a good look around the car for the other issues mentioned on here and had a second good look after I washed it yesterday..

Wow, seems to be a flood of Evoques arriving at the moment.
At last I have some progress.
Confirmed loaded on the cargo vessel "MANON", and has just left SouthHampton.
Now the long wait for it to "float" here.
Anyone else travelling with me?
RE: Australian Deliveries - chiggy - 13-02-2012 01:09am
Think you may get yours by end of MarchLeppard!

Marinetraffic.com has'nt been picking up the signals of any ships the last few days for me....is marine traffic working for anyone else?
RE: Australian Deliveries - chiggy - 13-02-2012 02:24am
Benzina - Marinetraffic will pick up the signal for your ship in the next day or two. Most likely by Wednesday as its due in on Thursday?
I remember when I was tracking mine - when it left from Durban I didn't see it on marinetraffic until a day before it was due to arrive. Not sure why... maybe it has something to do with pirates...

Yeah i realize that Chiggy, but what concerns me is that all the other random ships are not showing up...for instance, have a look for ships off Fremantle? I'm getting nothing,and if this keeps going,then it won't pickup my ship either. Can you give yours a shot,and see if you pick up ships off Fremantle. Thanks.

Yup working fine for me.
Ships off Fremantle - about 60 of them.
Grand Mercury showing as - out of range.
