Cool but unless you have a MASSIVE house I guess you're gonna struggle to fit it in

That said, I currently have an ex Marcus Gronholm/ Paul Bird, Ford Focus WRC carbon wing mirror gracing my mantelpiece!

yeah, bollocks to space, if it was near to me I'd have it and make something out of it.
It'd be hard to resist the urge to encase it in plastic and have a 1cwt cube as a coffee table.

For the sake of £150 i don't think anyone would go to all that hassle to fake it, to have the decals made to the exact spec would cost quite a bit.
