Well folks, beleive it or not the strips under the lights are done in black PVC tape!!
I was the same, tried it and liked it so its stayed there for now. If it doesn`t last the test of time then I will simply spray them up like the other bits!

I had mine done in ebony too.
Result was good but just didnt look as agressive as the factory OEM satin black finish. It just all blended in a bit too much and you lost the detail of the trims.

Off topic, I'm sorry, but is anyone else made angry every time they see a megane coupé with those ridiculous silvery-plastic air scoops?
