No, the black hatch is vinyl, it peels off like a big sticker, heat it using a hairdryer or a heat gun and it should peel off. Look at the pics of mine i sent you, i did the same. It looks a lot better. As for the handles, nip it down to the local body shop and get them to colour code them for you, your not looking at a lot for them done, you might want to get them to do the handle on the hatch at the same time.

Cheers m8, Lee.

I think you're right about getting a body shop to do the handles, but I never knew the back panel was vinyl!!! if I remove it, will it be painted white underneath or do I need to get that sprayed aswell? oh yeah also I haven't received any pics off you yet, if they don't get through to my hotmail account, try my work one.

No it will be painted under there as well. I've sent the pics to your other e-mail account as well now so give us a bell if they don't arrive.

Still not recieved any pics mate, but it could just be a bottle neck holding them up somewhere. I'll check again in a bit. Still at work, so I'll still be online for hours yet!!!!!
