Mystery lines?

**green machine** · 27th October 2008, 17:05

Anyone know about plastic and what would cause these lines to appear overnight???.........for the record they don't want to seem to come off in a hurry..........i'm at a loss to explain it

That will teach you to take that fat chick in the striped undies for a ride on the front.

Ill happily admit my eye sight is crap, but what lines? I'm guessing its going to be real obvious and ill look like a knob.

strange, it looks like a stretch mark, like its been bent or something?
but from where its centered youd have to be a genius to crash that part into something, otherwise it can do that from heat, but it was raining so dunno really
you probably know all this already

have a look behind the number board- you will prob find that they correspond with the stiffening ribs on the back. My guess is that the hot sun has somhow caused a release of stresses in the plastic and the pattern has come to the surface

Got no ribs on the back...........it's a mystery i tells ya

Aaaaaaaaaaaah, as I guessed it was obvious. I agree with Cave Weta. Not that it helps.
On second thoughts, Cave Weta is def wrong, anyone half blind can see its not that.

(Edited after reading the above post, no one will know and I will look more knowledgeable that Cave Weta)
