something i did last night :D
Got my CF Fabric wrap yesterday.
Bought some 3M Super 77 Spray adhesive and a hobby tool blade cutter to do the job. Did the three easiest trim which is the top and 2 door trim, will have to do the center console at a later date since you need to bloody take off the whole panel apart! It was actually quite easy to do I was quite surprised - just need some patience to do it. First one took me like an hour and a bit and by the time i got to the third one only took me 15-20 minutes to do. Only took picture of two of the trims as I forgot to take the last one - will take pictures of my interior once I have done all the trim ps. my ER goodies has arrived ***UPDATE on Post #10*** Last edited by RaihaX; 12-01-2011 at 11:40 AM.. |

http://www.pyspeed.com/Carbon-Fiber-...-p/rd-8001.htm I assume the matte black one. Yeah not sure how well it will turn out with your trim - I got the grey poplar trim ( I think that is what it is called). Also I think I will only use half a yard to wrap all my interior trim - I can't see myself using all of it! Quote:
When you say ground mounted geto blaster - did you mean my feet massage? Needed the rice bites to keep me awake! started at 11 PM got hooked and didnt finish till 2 AM was very hungry haha... Was tempted to do the center console but that would have taken me all night to do so decided not too maybe tonight... |

I have the silver bumpy stuff too - can't be wrapped via regular means however you can 'glue' it down... it won't look good though.

Finally finished the center console section... what a fucking pain in the arse that was!!!
I broke all the clips on the ashtray cover while trying to get it back on, I had to glue it back together and as a result now it doesn't open by itself unless I push it down The only thing I still need is some cable ties to re-tie my hand brake leather - the only one I've got are way too small. Anyway I think it really looks great - definitely an improvement over the old trim. Here are some photos I quickly took with my iphone |

Looks great. I want to do this as the sun beams right off my silver dash piece in the daylight and it seriously shits me. They may as well have put a bloody mirror there it's that blinding.
