Vinyl wrap for interior Dash/Door strips
« on: February 22, 2015, 08:16:01 am »
Morning all.  :indifferent:

I'm looking for some vinyl wrap/tape for my Alu Interior dash and doors strips because I have a few dents on mine im thinking something like the r32 style but possibly in yellow to match my Pirelli yellow stitching.

I've had a look on ebay but I don't really know what I'm looking for can some one put me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance :smiley:

Ive done all sorts of bits and pieces over the years. Just measure the items length and buy accordingly, it comes in set widths. 3M is fine, get it from ebay.

As mc71 said just measure the longest trim your going to wrap  which should be the door trim
Just make sure you get a bit more than needed just incase

i also did my ashtray and gear surround

That looks very nice, I'll gone off the idea of yellow I think it'll look a bit cheap.

I wouldn't mind your carbon fibre effect @jaffa but in silver simular to the r32 style, I did have a search but no luck could only find carbon effect.

the R32 style is brushed aluminium so maybe look for that instead of silver carbon fibre mate

HEXIS is very good  I had my own design printed on HEXIS which has not faded in over 6 years Supposed to last 12 years used externally  Many of the wrapping companies use it. Easy to use stretch etc once warm
