Yeah you were lucky pal, they are out of all stock and have been for a while. Only place I could find some was on ebay. Let's just say now they are going for twice that price. Just used a can today and have decided to do some more so looks like another £30 lol got to love modding cars

Cheers for the pointers rob and not to hijack but.............
Small update. As i have got as far ahead as i can with the exterior I thought it time to start inside. Only a small update but I've never been a fan of the silver gear surround so thought I would try this new plastidip stuff out. Looked on the Web and they are out of stock so off to ebay and a £15 tin is now selling for £30 so thought what the hell and got a can.
Anyhow it was nice and easy to remove, so here is the offending item (forgot to get a pick fitted but we all know what it looks like)
Masked it all up, applied a light coat and allowed it to try. Then on went four heavy coats and left it to dry over night. Left it till mid day and took all the tape off with the help of a Stanley blade. I so here it is
And here it is fitted along with a genuine duracon sti gear **** as fitted to the jdm sti's. Had one on my type 25 and loved it so decided that I needed another. Any how here it all is fitted.
It's a lot darker in the flesh, the light doesn't help.
Anyway anyone thinking of using the stuff, crack on its a nice product to use. Will see how well it t fairs up yet for now I'm happy. Couple more bits due in the mail and that will be it for the inside. Will update you later
Regards

picked up an Amazon return for about £35. Car's off the road so I can wait, not paying more than retail for it
