I fixed it for you

Very nicely done. I like the way you paid attention to details and lined up the lines

Thanks man! I thought a conservative amount there would give it a twist. Tomorrow I am doing my door vents and trim pieces. I will have to order more to complete my rear AC though.

I like it really changes it up a bit. You did a good job Mongo!

Now take the faceplate off that Blaupunkt and paint it black and it will look even better

Shift plate and door handles will be silver or aluminum to blend with radio later.

I'll be doing my door trims tomorrow and Saturday morning. I have been down with food poisoning earlier this week.

I am hoping to God I have enough Di-Noc to finish my rear AC vents.

Paul received the sample you sent me of the gunmetal looks really nice. It has a unique finish to it has the CF texture and pattern but metallic silver/gray makes it very interesting. Since your attacking a whole car interested to see what type of problems you have run into.

Mongo I bought about $200 worth at a terrible price. Didn't know Paul was selling at the time. But I was originally going to do just the roof of my 944 but after polishing and prepping the roof the paint looked way too good to cover up so depending on how much you need, you could have some if you just need some to finish up. Since I didn't use it I've just been wrapping random non-928 items I think I still have like a couple square feet.

Is it the CA-421 Black Carbon Fiber you have? I will let you know if I need another 2 more feet of it.

Here are 3 more pics from my door trim install (or wrap) this weekend. I am seriously debating on wrapping the ashtray right now. In fact I want to just replace the whole thing. The previous owner burned the plastic underneath by placing a still hot cigarette lighter in the tray and closing the lid. This caused warpage on it hence why I don't believe I should waste my time doing it.

I ran out of time this weekend so I have to do the passenger door vent trim tonight (you can see the sheet of Di-Noc sitting above the glovebox on my dash cover).

On a side note to anyone doing this later on, I recommend going to Home Depot and getting some drywall joint compound plastic blades. The blade end is not that sharp to damage the carbon fiber, but it is GREAT on tucking the strip into tight nooks and crannies while you are heating it.

I like the look of that over the stick on plastic stuff as this wraps around corners and the edge is out of sight. Is there a color sample list online that can be viewed?

I would have taken that side console out and removed the vents and window mirror selector?

I could not get my side vents out. How do you remove them? I have enough left to tear it off and redo it again.
