Shipping to OZ is crazy! So you'd be best sending to someone local and have them ship here. I'm looking at ordering 2mtrs if anyone wants to split shipping etc? 1metre falls just short because the long dash trim sits just on the 100mm mark and didn't want to fall short.

1.1-1.4mm sqmtre - $65AU (depending on exchange rate).

Delivery through them for 1 - 10sqm would be $125AU
Delivery locally (within UK) for 1 - 10sqm would be $17AU.

So I'm thinking about sending to someone locally and get them to forward it over.

Worst case for 2sqm delivered by them: $255AU.

At a guess, 2sqm should easily do 2, maybe 3 cars (3 series).

I'm not sure if I'd want to do the centre consol or not. May just cover it in black vynal or paint it.. Thoughts?

And again, some great progress and updates!

The carbon leather is an interesting option - I have not come across this product before. I have been considering doing the 3M carbon film at some point so I am interested to hear if this has advantages; and whether application is just a easy.

Yeah pricing isn't too bad at all. I'm happy to play pioneer and see how it turns out.

Watch this space!

Since I bought my 335i second hand off a 75yo guy (that traded for a new S Class), I'm assuming he never really stretched the legs on the old girl; So thought a carbon clean up at Advan was in order.

Nasty:

Two runs below. The before run was done on a stage 2+ COBB map back around December last year.

The other run was after the carbon clean, however I am part way through a PTF tune so it can't be taken as a direct before and after.

Thanks again to the guys @ Advan & Stu for the happy snaps!
