how much did roof cost to do? Easy to wash? Did you consider doing the spoiler as well?

If my wheels ever need refurbing I will be doing them black like yours.

The roof cost £140. just wash it with soapy water, but it does go white if you get wax on it.

Yeah the wheels really changed the look of the whole car.

How did the handles hold up after being painted? No cracking or pealing from daily use??

The handles and grilles were absolutely fine.

I sent the wheels off to be refurbed and painted, different companies charge different prices, i paid £50 a wheel.
