I have wrapped the centre consol around the rns510 in this stuff last year, along with the ashtray lid.

Looks ok imo

Oh my god that grill looks the SHIZZLE!!!!!! I'llbe measuring up 2moro! The bits on the steering wheel come of a piece of piss, just pull from the bottom. Gently but firm, like I treat a woman (did i mention i'm pissed)

The steering wheel inserts are a nice touch!

Decided to do the centre console and gear surround in the vinyl. Not got around to the dash part yet but the gear surround looks oj I think?

Looks really good, fancy having a go too.
Does the trim just clip off?

I have some real CF but it is a bit thik to mould/shape.

The steering wheel inserts are great too. Mine are looking a bit tired.

I also sorted out my magnets mr top cat! so the plate is removable easily with the magnets. Unfortunately i forgot to take a pic with the plate off! dumbass!

Ill try and get some better, arty shots in my next update! ;)

I am definitely gonna do my grill now. Did you do it yourself?  Also, how did you stick the magnets to the numberplate and behind the grill, and do they mark the carbon fibre at all?

Once again, looks just great on a black car.

Considered doing the roof or rear valance, OR, front splitter Booth?

Fancied the rear bumper but it means sanding it all down and the  I just can't be bothered with the hassle really. Might buy some badges , cover them and then flog them.

The bit around the gear lever clips off pretty easy if you get something under the trim nearest the handbrake. Once thats off there are 2 x screws to remove and the ashtray bit just slides out then.  I found this prior to doing it:

Bare in mind though that if the vinyl is quite thick it will probably stop the ashtray from opening correctly. I had to really stretch it when I did mine as it was causing the tray to stick slightly. Other than that you'll have to cut it flush rather than wrapping it down the sides. All in all its pretty simple though. Just have the hair dryer and scalpel ready!

I think all of these mods look really good, some can look cheap/tacky but these all look great, I want to do the metal inserts on my door cards as the drivers one on mine is really badly scratched and tiny dents that the previous owner somehow inflicted on them, could anyone tell me how to remove these metal strips?

Thanks
