Gotta DIY. Only the 2.8 came with it. The 1.8T got the black trim.

its a very complicated process. its all rivited in so you need to drill out the rivits and re rivit it onto the new car, im sure theres more to it than that too. you can aways pait them. probly cheaper and easier

ya it's a really annoying process. you can just find 2.8 doors in the same color though. but good luck with that with the color you have haha.

Mark you know you like the amount of chrome i have on my car. don't hate you hater
