Default Carbon look yoke protectors.

...a chav step too far, or the last item to complete the accessorized look?

I already have the tinted screen, rim strips, matching blue bar-ends, race can and I'm looking at the carbon effect yoke protector (£8 for a sticker?).

Too much, or more-the-merrier?

I think it looks alright when new, but horrible when old and faded...
