This is the stuff I 1st used http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220461679094&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
but I'v got some better vinly stuff now.
Basically you jst cover the item, heat it up a bit with a hair dryer and stretch it into place, just make sure you'v got a really sharp knife

dang that stuff aint cheap , I got some cheap crap off ebay for 10 quid? Sticky back stuff just to have a go with . Still use the hair dryer method? . Going to get some of this also though

Some of the cheaper stuff is pretty crap TBH,
From what I remember your dash should be Ok to do, the A & B pillers might be a bit more difficult due to them being textured, you will get air bubbles in the texture that wont come out, but it's worth a try.
Also make sure the sureface is clean, ise some alcohol spray to clean it otherwise it wont stick.

Right O . Just going to start pulling my car apart and carboning everything. Recon ill get a bug for it tbh .
Only set out to get the S Badge done thats why i baught it .. But one thing will lead to another im sure.

Strat with something simple and flat,
Also try and stick to one type of vinly and the patterns will change from different suppliers.

The real carbon is even better but very hard to work with

Yep going to start with the pillars i think. As they can be removed easy so should be fun . If its crap stuff ill go to the link you sent me and use them as it ''seems'' fairly easy . Want my S badge to turn out as good as yours but it seems like a B**h To do .The mirrors are crying to be done but no way could i do that . Think you should open ur own buisness in this . I'd post them off with cash to you since ur so good lol

In my ride thread you can see what I've done with 3M Di-Noc Carbon. Roof, rear wing and mirrors are wrapped by myself.
