Post Boiler suit
Quite fancy one of them Citroen badges to sew/iron on to my boiler suit. I know its geeky/sad but these little things please me :P
Is this normal behaviour? Where is the best place to pick them up?

Another thought: why not just make a stencil of the chevrons and paint/spray them on yourself. Way cooler!

Cool, if I sprayed two Juane Rialto chevrons on the back of my navy blue suit it would match the car ;)
Would the spray paint take to the fabric ok?

Dunno... but PlastiKote spray is said to be good on fabric (available at B&Q) or there's this site: http://www.fabricspray.co.uk/fabric-spray-paint
Then again, why not try putting your jaune rialto on an old t-shirt or something and see whether it works? Go for the good old punk rock mechanic look: Citroen logo, safety pins, zips, mohican, etc. ;)

:idea: No you would get razor burn, have a stencil made from waxing strips and then get the wife to do the hot wax treatment. :lol:
