I know it's old news now but I like the 'black on black' look, so while I've got a limited budget I was thinking of making a couple of cosmetic modifications to my car......
- Joey Mod or tint headlights with Lamin-X
- De-Chrome around windows
- De-chrome around lower votex grille (infact i need a new set really)
- Buy one of those ebay votex bonnet grilles with black rings
- Leon Cupra R Splitter
- Interior - Black roof liner & pillar trims (I miss that from my old Leon)
The wheels are fairly new so I'm a bit reluctant to get them powder coated black until they need a refurb.
I was planning on doing the work myself to keep me busy and I reckon it could be done for £100ish if i don't replace the votex grilles.
So, got a couple of questions....Would black spray paint work on the chromed bits or would it need to be powder coated?
Anybody got any thoughts or reccommendations on any of the above? I can accept criticism if people think it will look cack
Here's a pic of my car as it is.
Cheers,
Mark
