carbon fiber wrapping
Little bit of carbon wrapping.
I did the ashtray cover and area around the shifter as the black didn't look that nice to me.
At the same time I noticed scratches on the area behind the door handle so I did that too. Few before and after.
I have used this 3M wrap before and has endured really really well.
I also wanted to do the chrome on the door handles but it has a screw in the back that I can't reach without removing the whole handle and that is just too much work.

Just follow instructions here.

I didn't even remove the shift knob, no need.
Difficulty on this is 1 of 10 anyone can do it.
If I didn't have the edition 1 white lacquer trim I would have been wrapping those for sure instead of paying 1000 bucks for real carbon, one can't tell th difference.
