So having caught your attention with my title. Perhaps you can help with a few related problems…
Our daughter’s friend would like us to take her to her wedding in one of the 5’s - with the top down. Which of course we are happy to do.
How can I attach a wedding ribbon to the car ?- I am thinking it might be workable to attach to the sun visors? has anyone done this?
I don’t understand it myself- surely the bride would have just done her hair and make up etc and will not want a gale force breeze mucking up her beautified hair … I have visions of a puff of white voile quished into the passenger seat and a veil flying off behind me…
Agree with the above. Wedding ribbons seem to be quite abrasive when fluttering at speed. It marked my paint when I had some on mine but it polished out ok. It may be possible to make a small upstand bracket that hooks onto the slam panel to raise the ribbons off of the bonnet, but depends if you want to go to the bother. The cling film idea sounds good.
I used my Sport for my daughters wedding a few years back. Ribbons attached to the sunvisors & no paintwork damage. It helped that one of the bridesmaids was a hairdresser though so no bad hair day!
Yikes Dave ! I can’t say I would have been that good natured about what they did at your wedding!
When you did your daughters wedding - it looks like the ribbon was lying flat on the bonnett- may be that helped to protect it ! and you said you tied it to the sun visors - did you keep the windows up ? that may have helped to keep it flat too…??
