Painted mine, easy, cleaned them with white sprit, dried and then sprayed them with some matt black.

Not that hard to remove, haynes manual is your friend.

Slight pic of mine.

Took it out, Sprayed it black using normal matt black rattle cans.

Simple as really. One of the best mods ive ever done imo.

Depends on what you want to spent, I would personally recover them with material, suede, leatch, vinyl, same with the roof lining.

Didnt bother with plastic primer on the trims, If it starts to crack i might, but seems fine so far.

I've done the same as AW06 and got the same great finish, I did use plastic primer on the plastics as I have experienced the matt black flaking before.

The roof lining my look slightly patchy in places outside the car but when inside it is perfect. Don't for get to do all the little clips etc.
