The postman seems to have an inability to knock on my front door or try a neighbour before taking the stuff to the local sorting office!

Well I got through the correct Carbon fibre guards. I must say im still not impressed with the quality. They have both been cut out with a stanley knife. 1 has square corners and the other rounded. They have also slipped with a knife and damaged part of the area you can see.

I also ordered a map pocket off ebay that turned out to be bent and rubbish.....

aghhhh
