Heat gun on a low steady heat and plastic fishing line and go slow. Then buff with something like mcguieres compound.

Not yet kit is still being preped and still have to buy paint lol

Interior has sport seats and carbon wraped pillers, going to paint the head liner at some stage but tbh interor mods are bottom of the list as 99% of the time its a tip lol
