Stupid question Mick - LOVING it!

Just can't make up my mind to do all the trim or not. I have the all black interior and Pewters has the grey. Think it will look better in his over mine - could be too dark.

Is that the 3M CF wrap? If so, do you rate it - do you have a good contact to source it... ;)

Yeah I plan to do my trim to break up the grey as I have silver at the moment......I'm not going to do the steering wheel as for me it too much.

I'll try and get mine done for Bristol too (if I can be arsed to get the centre console out lol)

3M DI-NOC Carbon Fibre comes in metres 3m sell at £32+vat per metre
we do not stock it as its not classed as a automotive product
don,t know how this compares with what you guys are paying
but i can order if you want
i will speak to the 3m rep when he comes in and see if he can do us a deal on it ;)

if this looks good on your cars i may need to book myself into that custom interior place in wales :lol:

might be worth the :driving:

I had a few pieces lying around and did my door handle and trim today......tbh i think i'm either going to leave it as is or go for piano black.

I'll get the pics up off my iphone later and i will do this for anyone else if they want ;)
