Great work. Used the same stuff for mine last year. Not the easiest vinyl to work with, but can't beat that real CF look.

Game, how is the wrap holding up after a year, i'm worried that when summer hits, this stuff may not be durable enough to stay stuck down in the corners with the constant heat?

Thanks alot guys, it took some time and patience, as as Game says it was difficult to work with, especially on the corners, but I think it was worth it!

My Leatherique dye and restoration products will be arriving in the next week or so, Imola Coral Red accenting throughout the interior to come soon!

Not quite, I've still gotta do the Rear Centre Console Trim, and the passenger Side Doors Trims.

Will post pics as and when I get to those, as I will complete the project, but i'm not in a huge rush to get those last bits done as I rarely see them!

The corners on some of the vents have actually lifted a bit and no longer looks perfect. I assume heating it up and pulling a little should fix the issue.

I have the same issue. I wrapped my center piece by the gear shift twice now. Can't get the corners to stick and stay down. The wrap is very thin and pliable and won't hold up in very warm climates. Kinda frustrated with it since it does look really good.

I don't have this issue yet, just wanted to see whether Game had experienced any issues, try using 3M Primer 94 whilst wrapping next time mate. Also, The vinyl you have used is different to what I have, the pattern isn't quite the same.
