    Default From Wood Grain to Brushed Aluminum



    For those of you that are unhappy or tired of staring at your unattractive dashboard, there is a way to change that.

    Well done

    When applying the wrap did you guys remove the trim piece and wrap them off the car or in place?
    Also, is any type of heat or adhesive applied for longevity?

    Yes, we had to remove the pieces from the BMW in order to wrap the pieces properly. The surface of the pieces have to be thoroughly cleaned, a primer is used for the edges, and a heat gun is needed in order to get the material to wrap around the edges, this will increase the longevity.

    Just finished my M5 interior trim using 3M Di-Noc. Turned out amazing. Here are a few of the finished pieces.

    can this be applied to a textured piece? or does it need to be smooth?

    Nice Job. The 3M carbon fiber DI-NOC vinyl is an amazing product and easy to work with.
