I've never done vinyl before but it looks like you stretched and pulled on some of the flat surfaces a bit too much so the 'weave lines' of the vinyl doesn't look straight anymore.
The main center console looks good. The ashtray cover is the biggest offender and theres a couple of places on the dash trim that warped a bit. |

Yes. Don't be afraid of playing around with vinyl.

Not sure what you are referring to with the ash tray however, I am looking to fill that space in with the sunglass rubber pieces no more ash lid. Been searching the forum all day cant find a correct part number. |

Good job for a first time wrap.
However you might want to have the pattern on the trims go in the same direction. Take it all off and re-wrap, you will be alot more satisfied. |

I did my wrap last month and it came out really nice. One of the edges on the passenger door and the rear door kinda bubbled, you can't see it unless you open the door and look on the side but it still bothers me lol.

My Two Cents or $$$
I have pointed out the issues with your CF wrap, i would call it Carbon Fiber RAPE, Yes you rapped it Th red arrows indicates that Carbon fiber on dash going to left and CF on center console trim is going to right, thats wrong, both should be going one direction either to right or left and other people have already indicated those wavy lines because you have stratched CF too much and those spots have been marked in green circle. you should re do the whole thing. |
