My brushed Gunmetal vinyl wrap
I got tired of the fine-wood trim ash grain in the car. Time to change, first I tried the 3M Di-Noc matte carbon fibre, was not bad and it definitely made the car better looking than the original.
I decided to try Vvivid vinyl brushed gunmetal, it looked better and sleeker than the carbon fibre. If I was to do it over again, which I might, I will use the 3M product. It is easier to set, especially on the center console. I find the Vvivid need more heat to have it conform the tricky shape surfaces. This could be that this is my first time doing this and probably need some guidance. Anyway I like the outcome although not perfect, but it is so much better. |

Looks sweet. My little brother used vivid to add some CF by the gear selector.
PS love the start button |

My God... that looks ABSOLUTELY amazing!!! I might have to look into this myself. I convinced my wife to help me do some shadowline trim for the exterior... maybe interior vinyl is next!

very nice! been meaning to do mine but always like the woodgrain color since it matches the cinnamon interior of my car.

lsturbointeg you are actually the reason why I chose this!! I was reading your build thread the other night, and saw your comment about the trim vinyl. I checked out the site and showed my wife who is SUPER crafty with that kind of stuff.
my opinion: it was a classic example of why this forum exists... sharing knowledge and methods across our shared habit. Thanks again!! |
