Just looked at this thead for the first time in a while and I really like the black roof. Been thinking of doing this on my white ibiza. Or maybe I could go gun-metal or anthracite.

Did you do the whole conversion yourself?? Definetely need pics and a video!!

 

[seattoby]

lol no i didnt im not very mechanically minded lol. i just found extra jobs for him to do along the way.

ill get some vids up at the weekend hopefully and some pics if the weather turns nice again
