Looking for some ideas on customizing these two parts. Prefer to have same look at the carbon fiber that is on some parts of the center console (see picture). I thought of calling some vinyl wrap companies in Arizona but not sure they do these smaller projects. With exterior wraps they usually want to pull your whole car apart. Assume that is what they need to do with center console. Anyone know how hard it is to take it off and/or ideas on making this happen? I don't mind the piano black look but do NOT like the fingerprints that happen daily.
Piano black region of center console is a veritable finger print and scratch magnet! (albeit serves as an attractive/necessary contrast to the matte CF)
i opted to apply Xpel Ultimate gloss PPF over entire piano black region, to prevent both offenses.

Agreed, lots of DNA if the cops every need it Where did you buy the Xpel and was it challenge to install it?

Xpel sells a pre-cut kit on their website. Depending on level of competence, it def can be done with care.
I went to my PPF installer who did an impeccable job and avoided underlying dust and fibers that quickly stick to the backing, and can be very visible on black surface.

I'm in AZ too (Scottsdale) and I'm planning on doing the chrome on the door handles as well in either carbon-wrap or satin black to match my emblems that are painted satin black (exhaust tips are out now for powder coating satin black). Hopefully you can find a place to do it. I'll be checking this thread daily haha.
