Demi where did you get your silver interior carbon wrapped? Was it expensive?

mate it's real easy to do. buy some 3M carbon wrap off eBay, take your time and use a hair dryer. There are plenty of how to's on YouTube. looks 100x better with a gloss finish
 
Nice! Thanks mate, I'm guessing the actual silver rim pops out so you can get round it?
 
Hi Alex,

I bought 3M 1.5mx1m 3D carbon vinyl on eBay (it was an auction, so it nicked it for £9.99). That covered my bonnet and the off cuts from the edges I used to cover my door pillars where they have black vinyl from stock and inside trims too. Trim inside isnt easy to do (properly). If u dont prep it correctly it will lift and roll in few weeks. U might know that any stickers dont stay on rough plastic surfaces Hope this helps bud (y)
 
Also Alex, I forgot to mention, there are 2 types of carbon vinyl now, so u dont get confused. 3D and 4D. 3D is what I have on my car, its has matte finish and 4D has a wet, glossy finish, thats the only difference. (y)
 
Ok thanks Demi, think il go for the 3D Matt to go with the rest of the Matt interior :)

for using vinyl inside on the plastic trims, I highly recommend getting a can of plastic adhesive promoter and a super glue with a little brush or some other CLEAR fast drying glue with a brush. Use promoter on the parts before u wrap them, then when wrapped and trimmed, brush the edges with clear glue. Vents will peel and roll if u dont follow instructions above. 2 climate control surrounds dont need brushing as the dont deal with hot/cold air like vents but will need promoter coat before wrapping. All of them are easy apart from getting the wrap in the grooves around the display on the climate control surrounds. If u get stuck let me know, good luck :devil:
 
I had my centre console done in carbon wrap but couldn't get it quite right so I sprayed it black. (not really sure I like that so thinking of doing it red)

I left the vents on either side in wrap though
