Did it Myself, CF Interior trim

Picked up about $30 worth of CF fabric from PYSpeed and decided to tackle wrapping my interior trim.

I took my time doing a couple pieces a day for about a week but if you are determined enough I'm sure you could do this all in one Saturday. All you need is a bottle of 3M Super 77 spray on adhesive, a very sharp hobby knife or other razor blade, and a sharp pair of scissors.

Sometimes corners are hard to keep from wrinkling but all in all I would give myself an 8/10 grade for this project...

Yeah I'll have to re-do the driver side vent and the rear center console for sure...good thing I have plenty fabric left over. How does it hold up over time?

same here. it seems that when it got warm outside...some of my corners started to wrinkle.

i wonder how well this stuff is gonna hold up through the summer. i also used the 3M 77 spray adhesive.
