Tinted my headliner and carpeted the grey trims. Not sure on the finish on the headliner, might trim it in carpet.

@jordan92 I used some Autobrite fabric dye.
Needs a good few coats and the bottles run out quick if you’re not careful.

Cheers lads. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be but it was pain in the arse at times haha. Satisfying knowing you've done it yourself though.

Fitted new wheels. Replaced the 15” steels with 7J x 17” VW Dijon alloys (OEM on a mk7 Golf GT) fitted with 225/45 tyres. I had the wheels powder coated in a gun metal colour.

I have fitted the mk4 tail lights, love the look of these.
Excuse the dirty ness
A couple of weeks ago I got some original steelies cleaned up and powder coated black to tidy them up.
Would love some nice wheels, lowered etc, but it’s just not practical for my work sadly
Cheers, Rob
