I didn't do the roof. Previous owner did it, feels like he sprayed it. He also did the visors, grab handles, plastic clips yellow!! I did those bits in black using plastic trim paint from Halfrauds

How much you get them for? Asked a few local sellers on eBay for prices, is it off this model?

Yep, what @raymod said! Straight swap, just have to make sure you line it up right before you fully tighten the screws as I found the rear edge of the bonnet can rub, but finished effort:

Bit of a crack in the middle, never noticed it when I collected it but did when I washed it, can't complain as I paid nothing for it.
