Seeking ideas!

Spent an absolute fortune since buying my black 197

Alloy wheel refurb, anthracite to a slightly darker more sparkly colour.
Dash trims, air vents and radio casing resprayed in pearl black.
HID light kit fitted.
Rear windows 20% dark smoke tints.
Replacement steering wheel (stupid crap french quality peeling wheel prior)
HEKO wind deflectors.
Metal pressed number plates (100% legal)
Brand new alloy wheel bolts
Foot rest fitted.
Debadged completely ( will ad RS badge when I can be arsed! )

This isn't to mention the ball joints, full service inc cambelt I just forked out on!

Still to come;

Silver brembo calipers painted in black with white writing.
Roof sprayed in graphite grey.
Replacing standard head unit with JVC double din touch screen.
Replacing dials from 200 (maybe, trying to work out if it's worth it)
Interior lights changed to a white/blue light.

I'll get some pics shortly, however just looking for some additional ideas? The car is so boring interior wise as standard I'd love to improve it without massive cost :smile:
 
This was the interior on my previous car. Not massively different from standard, but it worked well (the car was red too).

A couple of cans of Plastidip and a couple of hours is all it cost.

I'm sure there will be more interesting stuff out there.

That looks like a really tidy job. I've the same thing but in black pearl and I've also had all the air vents, silver around the gear knob, radio cover and head unit cover done in pearl black. Pain in the arse getting them on and off lol :/

Wish the dash wasn't so plasticy.. might trim that in something!

I have pressed plates on my golf Gti from dubmeister

They're road legal, reflective and have the post ode on the bottom etc

Very nice quality too

I wouldn't bother. People still get fines with them and hassle. Some police are clueless and its not worth the hassle.
