Just finish wraping up all the interior!

Not that hard but removing the center console takes time

Match the carbon fiber to the same direction on the trim

Try to get the 3M wrap, not other brand. Try other brand before and it is harder.

Tips to get it look good and easier for you to do it:

1. First measure how much you need, and cut them in to the size you want. Don't just cut a square put it on and cut it.

2. Warm the 3m wrap before you stick it on, using hair dryer is enough.

3. Clean the trim before you warp.

4. Try to match the wave, looks 200% cooler

I might try to give this a stab! Do you mind letting us know where you got the DiNoc? Is it matters or glossy? I only see 12 inch wide on ebay. The bigger rolls are way expensive.

So the guy from ebay ripped me off and never delivered my di noc. I ended up buying it from amazon and was happy with the product.

So I wrapped my stuff and am very happy with the results! One question though, if I do not have the ash tray and I just have the open tray instead do I still have to pull the whole center console out?

Yes i think, because removing the center console is to reach the surrounding of the tray.

His has a open tray also.

Show some pictures of your project!

Damn! How hard is it to remove? it looks like a PITA for just that one stupid panel piece! I might need your help haha.

I'll take pics when I'm done. I have some crinkles on the door handles(very minor) but I got the dash piece done pretty sweet. I have to order another roll for the center console pieces today.

I wonder if I can cf my beige leather door cards. Ether that or I will plasti dip it haha. I'm getting black wet okole seat covers because no one wants to trade interiors with me.
