I was looking at the roof today and I came across a thread somewhere... I believe the antenna is just mounted with double sided tape. It can be removed than reinstalled if you want that seamless look. The only thing is the sunroof. I dont think you can remove the trim or gasket? I might give it a try?

I was planing to buy the "BMW M PERFORMANCE CARBON FIBER INTERIOR TRIM" Link but now I was like $50 to get it done instead of spending $2700 + installation fees I know you think I'm stupid to think about it

what do you think about the quality is it look nice nice I mean for F10 quality if I have wrapped the trim does it look good quality for the inside or no?

thanks bro.

This is my first time using carbon fiber vinyl and comparing it to the real stuff it's pretty spot on. I plan on using some of it on the interior pieces

It's a *itch! Heat gun and stretching is all I gotta say! This one took me 3 hours Not really sure if a DIY would help? Here's the 2nd mirror done. As you can see...one continuous piece being that the mirror cap is OEM this will almost look like the real thing and not just a cover this 5d carbon fiber vinyl you guys looks like the real stuff. Its pretty forgiving when stretching it and heating it. I've read some of the one's on eBay don't fit well




Any pictures of the mirrors and roof spoiler on the car?

She's in storage right now as I'm using my truck. She comes out once in awhile. Here's the thread I started if you wanna see what the roof spoiler looks like installed

So I don't know if the wrap company I went to today is right or wrong but I heard this 5D and 6D carbon fiber wraps like you just put on get baked quick or have issues in less then a month. Would love to know your thoughts on this and if you see any discoloration or anything wrong with the wrap.

well since i just did it i couldn't confirm this or not until i wait a month. as far as i know it held up pretty well as i've worked with vinyl before for my reflectors, door trim, front marker light and window trim. it's been a couple of years now and still holding pretty strong. i really think it comes down to installation and if you prepped the part well. removing all waxes and what not to make sure the vinyl adheres to the part completely. also, using a heat gun will lock it in as well. like mentioned before i plan on using some of this on the interior as well. haven't got around to it but when i do i always post it here

Well I was keeping that a big secret but I guess I'm gonna have to exceed that by putting a double Decker wing on it!
