Wrapped my wing mirrors in 4D gloss black carbon fibre, it was easy to get the covers off...damn hard to wrap them but managed to get all the creases out JUST!!!

But they took ages to refit, i had to cut the wrap right back to the very very edge to make them side back into position..

note to anybody doing this be careful how much wrap you fold into the back of the cover....I will 100% be getting the plastic scuttle panel wrapped professionally....

I wrapped mine too, unfortunately after last winter it all shrank slightly and has started to peal

I tried wrapping once.
Ended up just stopping at Halfrauds.

1 tin of primer
1 tin of gloss black
And 1 tin of clear lacquer later....much nicer and better result.

Went to get a dent removed. He put in the wedge, then the metal plate, then his bar, and bang. Window smashed completely into thousands of pieces! He got a new window sorted pretty quick to be fair but I didn't get my dent done lol. Spent the rest of the day trying to get all the pieces out of the bottom of the door. There's still some in, I'll probably never get them all out!
