nice job

heres a lil more i got done still need to do the power window switches gauge surrounds and maybe vents

GREAT JOB

I was hoping this wouldn't become ridiculously overdone... That was my plan. Probably not the shifter surround, but definitely the radio and two vent bezels.

must say it looks better in person i have just enough left to do either the 2 vents or the power window switches think im gonna go with the vents

these 3M Di-noc Carbon sticker ,I buy from Vincent_doggy ( cheaper price than e-bay)

Was this hard to do? because of all the corners and stuff?

yeah just a lil the part where it dips in to the leather takes some heating and stretching and some strongish glue coz the stuff on the back wont hold it

ive since had to glue some other parts of the radio surround like where it goes into the vents and that

i would like to do the top of my car,,,i have minor hail damage, i was wondering if i should put the wrap on if it will stick,>?? or should i put something there but what??

Cracking job you've done there mate - not sure if the material is up to being concave formed enough without cutting and glueing, but I managed it on my 944 which is a slighly easier profile.....





I have a feeling it might have a tendency for parts which have been highly stretched to shrink in hot conditions

yeah spot on mate coz my car is parked outside at work first hot day it shrank back up so some contact adhesive later and dont have that problem any more i have plans to do some more ive done the vents and might do the cup holder next just for a lil touch lol

Wrapped my Fuel flap today

Was not easy, but So happy with the result 8)

Progress shots:





Finished article:

did you use the 3m glue ( sold separately ) I did a few parts as a test for my interior and with the heat the vinyl started to go back to its original shape, so I was told I need the 3m glue to prevent this from happeing, I'm wondering if it'll be the same for the outside of a car.

nah, i'ts ok, it's never hot here

Looks great Luke, adds a nice touch

looking great Luke.

Fawk that's awesome! I love this stuff. I plan on purchasing a roll soon and doing a few things.

I found a UK distributor for the 3m stuff a while back was called william smith at the time they had it on an introductory price and would also send you out a free sample (its not very big, about 10cm x 15cm but it would give you an idea of the quality).

"Order any length; from 1 metre to a full 50m roll x 1220mm wide, for only £29.99 per metre"
