I have seen it on someone's car before, i'm not sure if it's something you can buy but you could probably get some made up.

When I bought my car, in a moment of youthful exuberance I covered it with some 'carbon fibre' effect sticky back plastic, carefully forcing the edges into the joins. Fortunately after a matter of months the 'carbon fibre' started dropping off (I'd used the interior grade sticky stuff), so I was left with just a plain black strip. Been like that ever since.

Or you could just spray it.

Thanks guys. I hold my head in shame

Fortunately, this was 10 years ago, so lighted washer jets, valve caps and a shopping list under the wing mirror were just a twinkle in eye of the Max Power editor or the Halfrauds buyer.

Pity I don't have a scanner as I'd post a piccie of my first car - a 1.0 litre Mk2 Polo - I thought it was great when I was 22. Now I look back and think WTF!!!!!

I'm sure we've all been there....

I use a ripspeed alloy check plate mate on the drivers side - ITS BOMB PROOF!
It protects the SEAT mats underneath protecting the carpet!!!!

Yes thats right! Mats to protect the mats!

Back on thread! - Didn't SEAT do carbon effect inserts as an accessory! But I they still had SEAT - IBIZA in chrome!

I hate over modified cars now. alrite as show cars but as day to day road cars they jus end up looking S*** wen your filler cracks!
