Title: Blue Bullet Carbon Dash - Door Cards now done
Post by: vRS Carl on July 14, 2010, 11:52:44 am

Well after seeing how another carbon dash looked i thought i would give it a go in the blue bullet.

Having a few days off work helps so had to occupy my time. So after wrapping the iPhone & iPad yesterday i decided this morning i would wrap the MFD3 surround, Ash Tray Lid & the Silver dash trim.

Here are the results and got to say i quite like it.

If i can be bothered with the hassle i may remove the door cards and do the silver trim on those too.

Edit: Well i can be bothered  :pomppomp:

Liking the trims on the dashboard, they made a great improvement to my bakofoil on my .:R32, I left the trim around the RNS and ashtray matt black as I thought it was a bit OTT to carbon fibre them but its down to personal taste

Get the door trims done

I think ot looks good, it maybe the photo quality that doesn't do it justice. where did you get the wrap from?
