I think you'll need to open up the little vents next to the air-con button for the system to work correctly.


This is how it should have come out of Torino!

Does it hide nicks and scratches well, or does it show everything underneath?

Requires pacience but fairly easy to so. Shows no imperfections from the surface below at all

Phill, how long is the roll of carbon wrap, I'd like to see a whole dash strip and door strips done in carbon, think it would look very mean!

Funny you should say that I've just enquired about ordering a roll so I can do dash strips etc.

By the end of the month my dash strip and faded b-pillars should be look a very nice and subtle carbon smile

can it be bought in various shades of grey/black,as i`m looking to do the inside centre consol in a light grey carbon to match the standard inside light carbon finnish on my Srt,and a darker one for the outside b pillars ?

top tip guys

if its not 3M vinyl dont buy it.

Cheaper versions are just that - nasty and flimsy with a surface that scratches like hell.

The 3M is brilliant to work with. Heat it up (dont be afraid of overheating)
and mould to almost any shape



go faster daddy

Make sure you get very high grade wrap with strong adhesive for it to last on the b-pillars geezer wink will look the mutts nuts though
