Default Did some neffywrap, couple pics...

First time, did a few interior pieces. Not bad to work with. Thinking about doing the console lid too, but can't decide if it would be too much? I also did the lightswitch cover for my living room. Wife hasn't seen that yet lol...

Good work! I wouldn't mind doing something like that myself. Decently workable for a do-it-yourselfer?

I still gotta finish off the radio bezel, just couldn't stretch the material enough to get in between the asr and foglight switches. Might paint that black or add a couple pieces of material. The hole is for my LL switch, still gotta wire that.

My wife said I should do this for some side work, I don't think I'm good enough yet to charge people lol. I'd be curious to try the 3M Di-noc stuff now too, just to see how workable it is in comparison. I like the low gloss of the neffywrap and the texture, but having the adhesive already on would be nice too.

Not bad, but I have worked with vinyl some as well. I wrapped 2 of my company vans, so I have minimal experience. If you've never played with this stuff or vinyl I would experiment on a few pieces first. My passenger side vent bezel has a small flaw in it since its the first thing I did. Nice thing is you can peel it and start over but that glue will be a bitch to get off if you wanna convert back to "stock".

You will find the 3M material WAY easier to work with since you dont need to lay down an adhesive first.

The drivers side one? I had some extra material that got in the opening, took it off and remounted, much better now.

Did the console lid today....really alot harder than I thought it would be. I figured a bigger piece would be easier. I don't see any way to get rid of all the wrinkles at the rear of the lid. It looks good, no one will notice unless they are in my back seat and look closely. I will probably re-do it later. May have to do 2 pieces...
