Looks good - did you get them sprayed, or are they available in silver/chrome or whatever it is?

You were a brave man to get those fitted after delivery. Glad it went well.

I'd like chrome for my black estate...

Car looks great in silver - is that the sunset glass option...?

Don't they just drop into some clips that are already there or are they a screw fit affair?

I presume it's like the Fabia, the rubber or coated platic strips come out, the holes are already there and they are then put in place and connected - unfortunately, my local dealer made an absolute mess of mine on the FAbia estate.

Have to say though, they look very nice and roof rails really add something to an estate, appearence wise.
