I've wrapped my leon Badge in 4D carbon wrap it took me about 2hrs!!! to do the four letters and lots and lots of patience....if I had to do them again I'd have them carbon dipped:p

Fitted new speakers.
Going to try and wrap the front grille surround tomorrow.
Also had an interesting chat at Revolution about an APR map. Will be getting it booked in end of August.

The front grill surround is a pig and I do mean a pig to wrap I've done quite a bit of wrapping now and it took me 1.5hrs and you'll struggle to get wll the creases out due to the shapes and curves in the corners + you'll get srink back right in the four corners due to the curved angles.....you've been warned. ..

I'm really not into all this light tinting/fly eyeing business

Stock lights looks so much better and fresher to me.

It takes 10 mins to remove the boot handle, so that so you can take the pin all the way out, sand it down, lube it up and slide it back in lol shouldn't take longer than 30 mins and it should be good as new :thumbup:

It's not that hard mate.

Take the grille off the car & then separate the chrome piece from the grille.

The chrome can then be wrapped using a piece of wrap cut larger than the chrome surround.
There is lots of wasted wrap, as you cut the middle out, but with lots of heat it can be done in 20 - 30 mins.
