Generally like the octys styling from the front and the back, but seems they forgot about the sides, particularly the windows on the estate.

It's something they seem to have addressed on the mkIII with the addition of some black pillars and a bit of chrome.

Has anyone used either/both of these:

And

They mention covers available for the estate but don't seem to stock them now.

Should probably leave it factory but have the urge to customise if I can do it convincingly. No desire to create a chav-wagon though!

Felt the same,still like the look but if I was doing it again would get it wrapped,hope this help

Sorry forgot to add pics,these were from superskoda but are not now shown,try skoda drop or wrap,hope this helps

I thought about doin this to mine but changed my mind. Think it looks better how it is

Yes, wrapping is the other option I guess.  Wondered how it would look as the bottom section doesn't cut into a hard line on the bodywork though.
