So here are the snaps that were asked for. The general shots look quite nice and the black brushed aluminum finish looks great. The few close up shots that I've attached show how bad the finish of applying the vinyl is!

So much easier to buy a car which already has a nice interior trim.

Omg even i did a better job of that with no experience.

OP try it yourself. Just need a hair dryer or a heat gun and some patience.

That is really poor! it's not cheap material either, bet the original guy hopes you don't go back so he doesn't waste any more material, you do have to be really good to do a proper job, I decided to spray mine as I could get a better finish, the black alu does look really nice though! (tempted to order some).

Which make of material did he use do you know? as I know 3M is around £50 a linear metre but you can get cheap crap which is about £20 a linear metre.

Those peeling issues are due to bad heating and overstrtching. I would put an unnoticable side panel where its peeled on the side for reassurance and as for the reat I dont think id be able to create that mess if I tried to be fair with you.

It's the 3M stuff or it should be anyway ...

I don't think that they will call me back and to be quite honest I'm happy with that.

I'm really happy with the brushed Ali and I'm my opinion is much classier than the more commonly used carbon.

Just need to organise a decent place to do it properly now ....

I just had my car wrapped by SurreyProjects. Check my posts. Must say im not extreamly happy with the wrap. However, they have told me to go back, i hope they will re-wrap some dodgy bits.
