Where did you get it ? looks good, was it easy removeing the centre console ?
Rekon those creases could be avoided ?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Those creases look like it ruins it for me. Looks pretty hard to apply, although if you pull it off it could look really good.

Yeah its hard work, I'm going to have a go tomorrow AGAIN lol, still i've got a 1.5m by 3m strip of it.

couldn't you have applied a little heat to the vinyl to make it a little more malleable and stretchy before sticking it to the console? the final effect looks cool tho ...much better than standard (even with creases lol)

 

[Ady182]

Heat + vinyl = win, looks good just couldnt live with those creases Im sure if you have another crack with a heat gun it would be so much better

I used my sisters hairdryer, I'm having another go now so fingers crossed it'll come out alot more smooth.

creases let it down

thanks for your comments, its coming along alot better now

Creases let it down, But not bad for a first attempt.

Hairdryer sounds like the best option, Hope your next attempt goes well.

Did you just take all the backing off and then apply it? Taking the backing off an inch at a time then stretching it upwards/downwards would be easier, No?

I think it will look brilliant. Get a 200 rev counter for it to.

 

[Lee-182]

Nasty

Here's the second attempt, It's defonetly better but not perfect. It turns out theres alot better quality vinyl's out there like 3M. So i'll do it again with that in a couple of months time.

Nice idea, looks good but can imagine it being a pain in the arse to get it "right"
