^ cool story bro. I don't see the issue dude? i'm ust asking some simple opinions does it look like shit or not? I'm not asking how much HP I can get out of my 4 banger? Or what simple mods I can do too "go fast" <--- dbag questions. So be easy dude if it look likes shit then simply say "it looks like ass"

That actually looks really nice. Did you wrap your dash in leather?

I used it to cover up the horrible fake carbon fiber looking interior bits on my Evo X. works great and looks pretty good too.

That stuff actually looks pretty good when applied properly ... kind of surprised...

How much of a learning curve is it, or is it just like wrapping with vinyl / putting on stickers?

Patients is key, take your time and use a blow dryer to warm up the vinyl and stretch it or mold around curves and corners...

Thanks for the input and pics guys! Keep it coming haha. Do you think a heat gun will work just as well as a blow dryer?

I may wrap my whole dang dash and center console (leaving trim pieces black), it's mostly brown now so anything would be better.

Lol my daily has that damn brown too. you could always wrap the dash with the all black vinyl wrap and accent the trim with the carbon fiber wrap dude. Either way it'll look legit bro.

Did you all do any prep work at all? I was thinking of taking a lite grit sand paper to just roughen the surface up little to get a better stick. THen I might finsh it up with a satin clear so it keeps that flat look but provides alittle more protection. Prolly use a test strip to see how it looks.

This is the actual truck I plan on wraping the interior pieces. Just going to drop it a little to tuck the rims a little better, don't want to have a extreme stance since i'll be using it to pick motors up in and throw my bike in the back when i go riding (gas saver i can finally give my suburban a break haha.)

Shit would look better then the tweed on the 240 interior. Glove box and doors.

Pinggg, your interior looks real nice. I like how you used only necessary gauges. Real clean. And they match the steering wheel too.
