• Full Sound Insulation: Currently, there is no area left without sound insulation except for the doors, roof, and floor of the vehicle. This sound insulation also provides thermal insulation to some extent. In this application, which generally consists of 3 layers, I continued by applying only 2 layers in areas with limited space. Currently, the noise levels have significantly decreased, and the music quality has greatly improved.

•Door Pockets, Glove Compartment, and Center Console Felt Lining: With this product I bought online, sold under the name comfort set, the items I place in the door pockets do not make noise and do not damage the trim. Additionally, the same lining in the center console and glove compartment enhances the vehicle's sense of quality.

• Metal Addition to Gear Knob: The ring and latch on the gear knob had a brushed aluminum appearance, while the remaining parts were leather. To complete these two pieces, I purchased a part with the same texture, adding a different look to the interior.

• Trunk Liner: A piece I purchased to protect the trunk carpet and ensure easy cleaning in case something spills.

• Chrome Window Trim: My model did not come with any factory-installed chrome window trim. Online, I mostly found trims that only covered the bottom line of the window. After some research, I found a full-round trim and I believe it adds an upper-segment look. It eliminated the empty appearance of the car, even though it wasn't actually empty.

• PPF Coating: The headlights and hood have been coated with Paint Protection Film (PPF) to protect against minor impacts, scratches, and yellowing from the sun.

• Window Tinting: I had window tinting applied to complete the vehicle's appearance and to prevent sunburns during the hot summer months.

• Skoda Scala 16 inch Wheels: I purchased the 16-inch wheels from the OEM Skoda Scala model, which replaced the original wheels on the vehicle. I fitted these wheels with higher-quality Continental PremiumContact 7 tires. This upgrade significantly improved the vehicle's comfort and handling. I will use the 15-inch wheels with winter tires to take advantage of their benefits.

• Tail Light Stickers: I made minor changes to the appearance of the tail lights using black vinyl overlays purchased online.

• Leather Armrest: At the time I purchased the vehicle, it did not come with an armrest. Additionally, the standard armrest now comes in fabric, but the model I bought is leather and includes extra insulation to prevent noise from items placed inside.

• Armrest Height Extender: A manually designed 3D-printed part to increase the height of the armrest.

• Dash Cam: An essential front and rear dash cam for driving. I use the 70mai A800S model and am very satisfied with its night performance.

• Painting Door Handles Glossy Black: Another custom modification I did is painting the door handles. They were removed, underwent the necessary processes, and were painted gloss black instead of the plain plastic look to enhance the vehicle's quality feel and appearance. As far as I know, I am the second person in the world to do this.
