Had a look about on the how to's and couldn't see one.
Has anyone given it a go or thought before?
I was thinking of going from light to dark as well as changing / painting the trims to black.
I've seen the 'A' pillars come in black but not the other bits so possibly I'd have to spray them ???

You can get all pillars and trim in black. Id be surprised if they was not black roof lining too.

Thats a result re: trims. Ta!
I'll prehaps give the stealers a call tomorrow and see what they have to say ??
I'd think that it should be easy enough to dye though.

could always get some clothes dye and rub it on with a sponge or something  no idea if it would work, and youd have to watch not to get it too wet or it might drop off

Is it bonded to the roof?
I'd imagine dying it in situ would be a real pain in the ar$£ too, knowing me I'd come out dyed more than the liner LOL

i would imagine it's held on by spray adhesive or something but i really have no idea tbh 
Can't really say it's something i'd try as i would come out dyed too haha

I'll have a look tomorrow then and see if I can get a rough idea of how its fixed.
That'll give me something to do rather than housework this w/end

Good point. 
If they made black trim for the RG I assume they will have done for others. Wait and see if anyone with a 3dr confirms.

I took mine of too clean under them. Just 2 clips at the top and the bottom of them, have a look. Pretty easy.
That is it if your talking about the roof liners

That was another thought of mine too as my aerial rubs the spoiler so was looking to move it forward enough to clear or find a different aerial base and antenna. (dont want the stubby look if I can help it)
If it works out OK then i'll make sure I take pics and try and produce a "how to" for it.
