Carbon Fiber Wrap FINISHED - Interior, Mirrors, and Grille

kamilclk430 · 05-27-2010, 10:56 PM

Hey Guys,

So after debating a bit about what I wanted to do with my interior, and where I wanted to go with the mirror covers and grille I decided to do something different than I found here on the forum. First of I purchased a new Single fin Grille just like FGEAR's and AMGFAN's. I wrapped the chrome part of the grille with carbon, just as my interior along with my mirror covers. I had to remove all pieces except the mirror covers, that stayed on the car while the wrap was being put on.

I think it really turned out great on the car.

Looks great, love the grille. How hard is the wrap to apply once all the pieces are removed?

I had Xtreme graphics wrap everything for me. I removed everything myself but the wrapping cost me only $135 for everything.

Looks very sharp and decent. I prefer this look above the shiny CF. Well done !

NikleinR6 · 06-09-2010, 11:56 PM

How much would they charge just to wrap the center console and the door trims??
What's the turnaround?
I have heard that once wraped in the carbon matt, you can coat these with a few coats of Urethane, and you will get the glossy carbon fiber look. Is that possible..
Thanks

It is super easy to remove the side trim I have a DIY up on here for that so you can do that as well. It takes them a day to wrap everything. You have to look them up and give them a call about shipping back and forth.

Post pics up as well of the roof.

Looks awesome.

shmoods · 07-06-2010, 10:20 PM

The wrap looks great. Do you know if they could wrap an aluminum trim? Can I just ship it to them and have them wrap it?

kamilclk430 · 07-13-2010, 10:07 AM

Yes they could wrap whatever you want. Shipping is also a possibility. Just give them a call for more details.

IngenereAMG · 07-13-2010, 10:32 AM

That looks great!! How big of a job was it to take the interior bits off?

CharlestonN · 07-13-2010, 05:32 PM

That looks great

Is there a DIY on removing all of the wood trim in the car? the only one i could find just showed the door panel pieces but the center console trim looks like a pain . . .

And if you dont mind me asking how much did the vinyl cost and where did you buy it?

My bad,m i just reread your post and saw that you said itwas $135 fr EVERYTHING and i looked on Xtreme Graphic's site and noticed that they used that same style wrap for some other cars, so that $135 included shipping and all? what was the turn around time?

Not a big job at all, just time consuming that is all. If I was to do it over again right now it would take me no longer than an hour to take the side panels of along with the center piece. The center when removed has to be completely disasambled to get the climate control units and ashtray and all that off, so that the wrap goes on evenly and perfect. You dont want to leave those in there and cut around them. I posted a DIY on the panels the center DIY is easy to look up on google and it shows you exacly how it is done.

$135 is what it was dropped off and picked up by me. The shop is local so it took me 20 min to get there and 20 min to come back. The turn around time was super fast 2 days or so. If I have an appt scheduled before hand it might be done that same day. Call them to find out exacly.

dynomite05 · 07-14-2010, 02:43 PM

Good Work

CharlestonN · 07-14-2010, 04:52 PM

I just got a quote from Xtreme Graphics for just the interior wood trim pieces for when i pick up my car

He said it would be around $160 total including shipping from where i live - Beverly Hills, CA and the turn around time would be 2 days plus shipping time

Not bad at all but i am going to see if i can find a place with that same type of CF Wrap locally so i dont have to deal with shipping
