Gun metal grey trim vinyl wrap!
Hey guys, just wanted to show you my wrapped interior trim. It was my first time and at first it was a bit difficult but then I got the hang of it and it was actually pretty fun. Best 20 dollars I've ever spent! Hope you guys enjoy. (Please excuse the somewhat dirty interior)
If there is anyone who has experience in vinyl wrapping, would you mind giving me some tips on how to get the circled areas to be perfect? I had a bit of trouble with the sides of the circled areas, it always bunched up a bit even after I heated it up and stretched it. |

I like the brushed look, but you need to do something about that floor mat. That can get dangerous the way it's bunching up around the accelerator.

looks good. does the pattern all run the same way? its hard to tell from the pics.
for those circled corners, i made sure to start with the center of the side and stretch it to the corners. then move the vinyl on the top and bottom away from the ends and it was perfect for me.

Thanks!
I bought it used on ebay. Putting it in is easy, you just have to cut the old boot off and thread it through the boot in your car. I haven't wired it yet but it doesn't seem hard, mostly plug and play after you make the wiring harness. |

Looks good. Yeah, it is easier to work with a circle when you cut and '+' into the circle. That way you can smooth our each of the four sections.

not sure i like. i think a lighter color would be better... or if you're modified... then something bold like blue or red
