So, was bored Saturday and cleaned my car.. it rained 20 second later haha

Had some 3m I had bought for a buddy and he never came to lick it up. I deceived to put the car in he garage and put those $28 bucks of 3m to solid use and wrapped my interior panels ...until I can grab a OEM carbon swap for a steal.

About a hour from removal, cleaning, laying the vinyl and install back in the car.

First mod complete *

It looks great. Almost like real carbon. You should wrap the shift plate as well.

Is there a glossy clear wrap you could put over it? That would make it more convincing I think

I want to wrap my carbon trim with a matte clear as I've never been a fan of gloss carbon

Looks like it came out great

I had the gloss version as well as this 3M one i used. decided to use this one. The 5D gloss carbon vinyl looks very nice as well though.

This is the 3m matte carbon, $22 bucks off amazon can get you enough do to the interior.

Agreed! Once you go matte, you can never go back.
