Looking at having my mirrors and front grill surround put to black on my Fr like the cupras have,

What's the easiest way buying replacement parts, painting/wrapping myself or getting them sprayed by a garage...

Anyone know what a garage would charge to do it?

Plasti-Dipped mine. No experience in spray painting and I managed to get perfect results. Best thing is, if you do fail it peels straight off no consequences ... apart from a waste of paint. Hell of a lot easier than wrapping imo!

I bought a pair of replacement glossy black mirror caps from eBay costing £48. Just pop the old ones off and click the news 1s straight on.

SEAT LEON 09-12 PAIR OF WING MIRROR COVERS IN GLOSS BLACK L/H AND R/H eBay item no.172210559308

For my grill I bought a new one that doesn't have the Seat logo on it. I sprayed it with half a tin of black plastidip
