Wrapping my e92 Interior Trim

So wrapping my e92 interior trim as the title says. So far I got all of the right side trim off in about 30 seconds using an interior trim removal tool. Here is the vinyl I purchased :

I have a grey interior so I wanted to go with something that would go well. We will see how it turns out Im sick of that ugly wood trim. Will be posting updates as I go!

Go slow. Heat is your friend. Do not stretch the vinyl while is to hot. GL HF.

Love the carbon fiber! Thats awesome! That would be great to do on the whole interior, I'll have to consider this.

You got some 94 primer? Make sure you have it for dash trims. Vent corners

Ya so far so good, heres the vent as well as the driver side panel. Will post pictures of it installed in the car. Biggest thing I noticed is that heat really helps. Stretch it as much as possible but not to much or it will tear up. The corners are the hardest part so far.

Ya the silver carbon fiber would look great on an all black interior. It will make it really pop. I love this 3m stuff because its not glossy either its a nice flat carbon fiber look.

While I don't like the color, looks like you're doing a good job.
