A front end wrap with some new wonder film that's supposedly more resistant to damage and fading etc, Suntek. Very happy with the work, only down side is it shows every little blemish underneath!

Sorry Phil when I first saw what you were doing I thought that will look really *****
But fitted I could not be more wrong, I think it helps that the colour and finish of the parts is bob on, just really really good ! :worship:

I find a small felt self adhesive pad on the rear of my Kenu Airframe works great to keep the screen upright (iPhone 7+) as the pad rests on the vent adjuster
Think the 997 just has weak vents tbh, (of just there's nothing for the phone to rest against) was never a problem in the 996
Sorry for the delay in replying....
So fittted the magnetic circle to the back of my actual Apple 5S, the magnetic circle actually goes over a plastic see through circle for easy removal later. I put the phone cover back on, over the new magnetic circle. My kit came with 2 sets of circles. The 'puck' I plonked on the vents, and the construction was very solid, someone with an eye for engineering design had a hand in the 'puck' design. Used it for about 3/4 days now, it's ace ! It assumes your vents aren't very flappy ( knackered ) but because it sits quite hard into the attaching vent and rests firm on the immediate vent above and below I can imagine it still works. From a magnetic strength perspective, I would say you could hang a bigger phone than the 5s. Overall £6.90 for a great piece of kit, I'm just going to buy one for my wife

thanks mate, you werent the only one :grin: I always buy the bits either new or off ebay just incase any part of what I do I think OMG no . then I can put it back using the original part. I wasnt entirelly sure it would work as what looks good in one colour may not in another colour . but I was pleased that it all came together nicely. Still debating whether the galvarno silver dash trim in aqua might be a step too far , I have it all used brought off ebay ready to paint bit still deciding :grin: :grin:
Wicked coatings finishes are spot on , they wont accept anything less as they work on very high end jobs saw some bugatti stuff being done for a show while I was down there , and my bits were rejected by their QA the first time and had to be redone :thumb:

There's a horrible line between 'less is more' and 'just too much'
One of the cool things about these mods is you can dial them up and down
As your mince pies tell you :thumbs:
