Default Just a little radio bezel accent

Nothing big, just wrapped my radio bezel. It blends with the color of the dash alot better in person so its very subtle. What do you think? Its textured just like real carbon so its not glossy or tacky....

I got it from pepboys believe it or not. It is actually good quality and is made for wrapping so it stretches well with heat. I have more expensive 3m di-noc stuff but wanted to try with this first. Came out well so ill probably leave it. And it actually looks almost as good as the 3m stuff. Think it was like $15 for a 20" x 50" roll.

I think it looks really good man. Are you going to be wrapping anything else on the interior?

Idk....i dont want to go overboard, but this stuff is really subtle in person and blends much better than in pics...

Thanks!!!!.....This is the stuff I used http://www.pepboys.com/product/detai...ps/?quantity=1

Like i said I do have some 3m di-noc too but im saving it since its pricey and wanted to make sure i liked it first so this stuff was good for testing. But it actually looks almost as good as the 3m and is easy to work with so I would def buy it again!!!

Just tried mine today. I must say, it's definitely different and more subtle in person. I'm still on the fence.

I'm in the same boat as the OP, I think less is more, but it's definitely not bad. I'd consider wrapping other small things.
