I was also thinking of painting all the trim and bumbers the same as the car, what do you think?? or should i just keep it all red and black i just cant decide lol 

[gjroe78]

Not a bad idea that but not sure you can paint it all ?

[xzoex]

wouldnt it just be a case of sand prime and paint?

the window will pop out if you ease it out gently, going round all corners wee bit at a time!

dont paint the black trim it looks hideous, keep it as VAG meant it to be!!

keep the trim black
looks great against a red car.

do i just use a razor blade to go round the seal to get it out? then silacone it back in?

[Simpson]

nah i wouldnt touch the seal with a razorblade if you want to keep the seal! as said it should come out, i managed to do it with my fingers just pushing the lip over the metal edge bit by bit till it popped out.

That's what i was told too, although it didn't happen:




Be very careful if you intend to re-use the screen. Luckily i was taking mine out to replace it!
