Hi all

Just finished this off over the weekend. Saw that they are about £190 with the vat.

So seeing as I do this for a living, I thought I would give it a try.

Really pleased with the outcome. Carbon wrapped cost me £40 using proper 3m wove carbon vinyl.

Looks very nice! How heat resistant to peeling is it?..I know it gets pretty hot near the passenger footwell at times

should be fine, has to be applied with heat gun and is the same material used for full body car wraps!!

Looks good, might have to do mine as have resprayed it a couple of times out a rattle can and it just scratches off.

How comes it was £40? Looked on ebay and the 3m carbon is £20 for 60x60. Is there other stuff needed?

its expensive when buying by the roll lol

I'm tempted to have a go myself..what could go wrong?! perhaps also on the door card controls?
