so car was pretty dirty, so another cleanup! used AG aqua wax today really impressed with this stuff, gives a really good gloss, just ordered some zaino z8 so will see how it compares, always preferred sealents to waxes so fingers crossed!
couple before/afters!

re: White Grande Sporting

Not at all.

Bought the ones i added the link to.

then in the wheel arch, theres a swivel type latch.. you turn this and push the flap in. then erach behind the indicator bulb, rotate anti clockwise, and then walah, bulb comes out.. (takes some force sometimes to twist it out)... if not check your manaul.. page 168 if my memory serves me right !!!

goodluck! will post some pics of mine later!

Lmao, my mis-understanding,

The joys of not quoting what you are answering, lol!

But for those who wanna know, there you go.
 
re: White Grande Sporting

yeah got a set of silvatec ones sitting in garage waiting til i replace my headlights before i fit them as can do it all at once, in no rush!

the a pillars are a mission matt, one is sewn and the other is folded and glued and the glued one was easier and smoother imo but think that was because i had already done one, i used 50cm x 150cm iirc then a smaller piece i didnt measure for the thin bit, need more material than you think because of the shape and bend of it all! the glue i used was 'copydex' worked well on 'b' pillar trim so used again, i had to use it quite thinly with the material i used incase it soaked through. happy with the results though!
 
re: White Grande Sporting

not had time to fit yet, also removed the cupra splitter last week, and put some tinted side repeaters on
 
re: White Grande Sporting

Yeah it needs doing every other week basically lol. Mine is stone chipped to hell. Oh and when you do A pillars the black bit on the bottom comes off incase you didnt know so you can trim it round the edge of the pillar properly. Also how did you do inside the A bit of the front pillar as mine is proper messy so im having them out to redo.
