I will take close ups when I finish it. I am super picky about imperfections (i have issues). My car is sitting in storage for the S*itty new england winter so Hopefully I can throw the grill on soon and take some pics. I wrapped my Ipod with it too lmao.

That's true! Remove that black tape that is on the OEM diffuser area, put that on instead and voila!

It's vinyl. It's basically plastic. So it won't do anything, it'll just slide right off of it.

I can't wait to do the rear diffuser. I'm thinking about doing the oem e63 trunk spoiler too.

Your worst nightmare...
Covering Interior Wood panels
Holy Cow, That looks hot man!!!


How many would recommend covering the wood trim in your E's, I would probably buy another set of interior panels to experiment before putting it on my E55.

I was seriously thinking about it - I was curious about how easy it would be to remove it once it was applied? If it's fairly easy, then a second set of interior panels wouldn't be necessary.

Had I not done real CF on my interior this I what I would have used! Removing the trim to do it isn't necessary on the doors but as with everything, if you remove it all it's much easier to do. I've ordered more rolls of CF and they are coming early next week. I also requested samples of silver CF trim as well to see what else is out there!
