Not that hard once you get a hint of it. i have wrapped my mirrors too and done some jobs on my friends car.

You just gotta make sure you use a heat gun and leave no bubbles show.

I dont get what you are saying?
I am not leaving any wood show if that is what you are thinking. I will cover the door panels too...

I agree with Chris, as long as you don't over do the red it will look good. Keep it subtle. That's the beauty of vinyl, you could experiment without damage. I believe MB offered a two tone using red.

Gerald was great and he said he will get it done for me.
Black leather with red stitching.

Downside is this will take about two months to be done but that is fine with me.
Thanks for your help Mikata

No problem bro Jerry is a great guy!
It took two months for me too but it's worth the wait. I think your black with red stitches will look awsome! Too bad I don't have black interior
It's not as "bulky" as you might think looking at the pictures. I will post new pics soon.

If you need help on removing interior pieces let me know.
I bought this from MAcarbon

http://www.macarbon.com/store/macarb...tools-322.html

which really help a lot

i've been wanting to do this to my tan interior too. but maybe light silver CF like gun metal or something. The black and red combo's hot for a black car. Looks good !!!

You might want to do little with silver first. Not sure how tan will look against silver.
I just never seen it before not saying it will look bad.

If it doesnt than black will always be good
