Colour coded cup splitter, £20ish
I know you posted this ages ago, but where did you get this from! Really want a colour coded splitter!
I'm guessing he just got it sprayed by a body shop mate.
172 Cup
Just wow...
Racing Blue 182
But I haven't come across like a plastic one yet only the rubber ones. Surely you can't get them sprayed? Or am I just being stupid?
Buy a cup splitter from Renault for £120quid.
Then go to Halfords and get some rattle cans, plastic primer, your cars paint and lacquer (clear coat).
It's not hard to do, i've just painted my bullets and badges with zero knowledge of what I was doing.
Artic 182FF
Or a Skoda Fabia splitter for about £12.
I'm not sure the paint would stay on a Skoda splitter very long, they're more like rubber than plastic.
When you came to screw the thing in all the lacquer would crack and fall off
because you have to bend it alot to screw it into place.
That and the fact that it's floppy and bendy to begin with,
just moving the thing after the paint's dry would make it crack and fall off tbh.

Now you know why the Skoda spitter's so popular, £12 > £120.
Renault take the piss charging that much for a piece of plastic that'll snap the first time a stone hits it.

You have to remove the boot mechanism from the inside.
It's only held on with 3 bolts, then undo hook the metal bar that connects to it,
there's a rubber pipe that goes to it that just pulls off, then you have to hold the button closed to get it out,
otherwise you'll scrape you knuckles and end up swearing in the street.
It's easy tbh, here's mine.

I used a rattle cans of plastic primer, Iceburg Silver and lacquer I bought from Halfords,
although if I was to do it again i'd buy a better lacquer, the Halfords stuff is sh*t and gave me a headache for 2 days,
despite using it outside.
Corolla T-Sport
Not so much a cool mod, but a practical one. Anti slip boot mat. Stops your stuff slamming around in the back. Not bad from poundworld.
182 & LY Clio 220 ed
You're not supposed to drink it mate...even on a park bench its still not safe (Well...probably safer than the MD 20/20 I used to drink as a teenager!)
