Loads, I did my all 4 inner door handles, my centre console and all 4 door pillar trims and I've still got a little left over.

If it is the 3M stuff you can get it a hell of a lot cheaper than £50 a meter.

[Andrewcupra TDI]

not bad then if a few people chipped in together , say a meter each or something

I'm wondering how resistant this stuff is. How well will it last, especially on areas such as door handles? Maybe it would be a good idea to lacquer them - for longevity?

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

30x120cm is £16.45

60x120cm is £28.90

Thats both on Ebay.

i wouldnt try to lacquer it it will fall stright off!

I just don't trust this stuff on doorhandles and areas that suffer a lot of abuse, but really like the look of them. What about some kind of resin?

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Its fine on door handles and on the outside of car

 

[Chocozai]

How long have you had it on for though? I want my mods to be quality that lasts, don't want to keep having to re-do them because they peel off or look crap after a year of useage.

That's pretty amazing.
I'm just wondering how long it'll last. 1 year? 2? When will it start to fade and feel? On stuff like centre panels, some kind of lacquer or transparent resin would be good for extra gloss and solidity though.
