Bum! :-(

Just took the country stickers off my panniers and managed to remove a chunk of paint where the scratched bit was. Now it looks worse than when I dropped the bike in Marsa docks in Malta

Oh well, a pair of new ready painted pannier covers from Givi is cheaper than getting these two repainted.

Oops!

[fenjer]

you selling the old pair of panniers?

[Lozzo]

No, sorry, not selling them. The panniers have replaceable panels that are painted to match the body colour, so I'll just buy a new set of panels and screw them on instead.

remember looking at them last weekend and thinking "mmmmmm thats gonna be a messy one to remove"

[Lozzo]

They came off easily and the glue cleaned up well. Under the large RSM sticker were the scratches the pannier got when it fell over in the Maltese dockyard, so I was going to have to do something about that side anyway. I'm just a bit annoyed that the paint came up in chunks as well, but it doesn't look too bad today - maybe I'm just getting less and less precious about the bike as time goes on.
