Looking good mate, may have to steal your idea on spraying the inside bits white, really like how that has turned out :D

Cheers, have done the vent rings as well now. Never got round to pictures yet.
Also got the Cupra black headlining and pillars the other day. Pictures to follow when I've cleaned the car ha.

You get it fitted ok? It was really easy to remove surprisingly! Good price for it too ;)

To remove the headlining, you need to take out the rear seats, rear door cards.
The A pillars just pull off, B pillars have two screws and you need to remove the seatbelts, C pillar centre section pulls off, then the parcel shelf mounts need to come out and there are a couple of screws to remove the C pillars.

Take out the light, sunvisors and grab handles and the headlining will be loose. Then its a struggle to squeeze it out the boot.

All in all, takes less than an hour.

Greg - I have that part that was missing. Give me a shout when your free to come get it.

What he said ^^

Took us maybe an hour out and and an hour in. Managed it in without folding ok.

Alright, great. You in today at all?

The folding was the bit I was worried about TBH. The more I see it, the more I think they must put them in via the windscreen in the factory.

I've got dog training tonight but I'll be in anytime after 1 tomorrow
 
Not had an update for a while but got my fogs and tinted them before fitting. They actually look gloss black but light output seems ok so I'm made up with that.

Also after an exploding cider can incident, I needed to give the inside a good clean but it was a nice day so I did the outside too and today I took a few pictures. Can see the new headlining and a better look of the Cupra bumper and black roof.
