Re: Black pillar trims-
In my previous car I used fabric dye on the headliner and plastic dye on the pillars to convert from beige to black. It didn't cost much, but it took some time.
I was lucky in that there were sunvisors and grab handles available in black. To try and source those from an S2 would likely add significant cost to converting a coupe to black on top.

How well does that stuff adhere Andrew?
I am concerned it will flake with time and weather.
I've already got the sunvisors in black and grips in black just need the pillars and headliner.

Re: How well does that stuff adhere Andrew?
I was actually quite pleased, the only area I had an issue with was around the seatbelt where the clip would hit when it retracted. It didn't fade in the time that I had the car, but that was in the rainy west coast, not the hot sun of the south.
The spray dye for the headliner worked really well and didn't get to stiff as if it was painted.

if you can make contact with
Tobias aka "tots" he got 'em. you can use either of the black rs2 or s2 grips and sun visors.
I have a moonroof and I suspect the aluminum sunroof switch is different. so you will have to find a friend in Euroland to help you match that part.
Keep checking ebay.de there are good sellers with thousands of positive feedback who speak english, ship worlwide and accept paypal.
