just some shots of my interior



what do you think ?

didnt think i'd like it, but I kind of do!!

its taken me some time to get used to it but i love it now , still have the electric blue door and dash strips , centre console , ash tray and surround if i ever get bored of it .

i like it mate!!

Smart, really like it

How much of this wrap do you have?

Do you have shares in the company

lol , i'm all out now .

Looks very nice

wrap my centre console for me please Nis, I fccuk'd mine right up.;-)

Looks real nice

Thats how I feel everytime I look inside your car Paul at the MJ seats

Looks fantastic to my eyes

Looks really good.

That's jealousy

Quite like it actually!

Nice nismo.

Just off topic slightly, how did you remove the ash tray surround section to wrap it?

Ross

Not for me ta, but fair do's Iain you're not afraid to get stuck in and experiment!

Not my cup of tea nismo but thumbs up for the effort

My son really wants me to do this!
Need to look out for a spare centre console and then give it a go.
I see the clock has a chrome ring, was this standard on LE models?

I like it





No it's just an accessory,like the heater rings, speaker rings, rear light rings

Thanks Sparkyman.
Not sure I have seen any for sale?

You usually pick them up on ebay or on here, you can also post in the wanted section on this forum, they do pop up from time to time

Here you go Brilly

Thanks Pinin, but I meant I have never seen the clock chrome rings advertised for sale?

thinking of doing this to a dash on my mini, how much stretch is there on this?

im guessing that on the centre console, where the radio fits you used a couple of pieces and kept the join as neat as possible?

any chance of some close ups of that area?

also any recommendations on a source for the wrap?

3m DI-NOC. Got mine from Underground Graphics.

if you use a hairdryer then you can mould the wrap easerly but you just have to take your time with it and not rush otherwise you end up with loads of little bubbles under the wrap , and of the wraps off ebay are ok just depends on how much you want to spend .

i was looking at this:

carbon vinyl on ebay

or this

what d'you think?

they both look like the stuff i have used so go for it , post some photos when you have done the dash

cool cheers bud

Did it stretch into the recess for the radio or is that a seperate piece

i used another peace of wrap in the recess for the radio , its very easy to match up and no one has noticed it yet .

Did you do the recess first or after? Also whats the centre console like to do

i did it after i had wrapped the front , its not bad but just take your time with it to get rid of any bubbles and it shouldn't take to long . i would have ago on something just to see how to do it and go from there .

How many pieces to do the centre console?

i did it with one peace apart from where the radio is

Sorry I mean the section where the handbrake is

i have left that and not bothered to do it

Probably a wise move

i have see a couple done and they look very patchy as it looks very hard to do .

If I have plenty left over I will give it a go, what about prep do you have to remove that rubber coating stuff?

yes you will have to remove it but i just used cheap nail varnish remover and a metal pot scourer and it comes of quite quick

Looks nice mate. There's some really nice blue c/f from a firm in the states that's got a glossy finish, not sure if its as flexible as the di-noc type vinyl though so might be better for flat surfaces?

I did a few c/f bits on the last Saab and knocked up a few dash kits for some guys. Took ages but they looked pretty nice installed:

Also tried out a few different ones on ebay, got stung with a pretty large order as the stuff just bubbled and ended up in the bin or given to a mate for his track car project!

I've done my current dash with some dark metallic grey di-noc, but needs re-doing as its peeled in the center
