Jumped on the eaziwrap bandwagon. Alloys, lettering diffuser all done. Inlays applied soon (I hope)

Took it to SEAT to get a couple of things sorted under warranty. They have given me this awful Citroen, Cactus thing as a courtesy car. Sounds like a tractor and it's a petrol!

3cyl petrol mmm nice

Easy to install?

Ermmmmm, not too bad.

had to reorder alloys as I messed up the centre caps first time round. But once you’ve put a few things down and got a feel for how the vinyl works then yeah it’s relatively easy to install. By the time I’d done two wheels I was flying.

This is what happened to my inlay. Messed it up towards the end. Got a crease in it. Guy said he'd send me a new one but I've decided I'm no wrap expert so I'll leave it for now.

Did you have to cut anything you applied so far as you have to cut the inlays to finish them off? The letters, fog lights and flag were nice and easy though haha.

I am nervous about the inlays tbh, got some knifeless tape to use, hopefully that will help. With the alloys it is just cutting the outer rim and a few of the spokes but nothing major.
I also have the paddle shifters from eaziwrap and recommend them massively.

Added darker tint to the fogs and added some small copper detail to the flag. Rubbish weather, light conditions and a dirty car don't help the photo.

No diffuser yet?

The maxton one my brother got for his M140 is really **** quality. Its thicker at one end than the other.
The only one I'd get is the OEM one but not a fan of forking out £500 for a slightly more aggressive look. Side skirts make a much bigger impact and I nearly cried paying for them haha.

I agree on the OEM one, but i do want to put a diffuser on mine. However having seen the plastic and poor mold quality of the ones on otehr peoples cars in person. I would rather pay for the OEM one than £150-£200 for crappy bit of plastic. Long term goals....

Thinking about ordering a screen protector for the 8" media screen, anyone has one and can comment?

Would probably go for a tempered glass one if so, has one on my phone and it is brilliant.

I've fitted one and it looks very nice, it does hamper the response but doesn't bother me too much as I use the steering wheel controls.

It is a total pain to input anything so be warned!

is the one I ordered when I got my car back in May.

I too have lost the sensitivity in the screen like @Peller with it but got used to using it now. It doesn’t seem to like swipes as much as without.
