just bought a giant roll, should be interesting.

Do you guys wrap just the stuff you can see or do you do it all the way around? I'm a little confused on how your cutting and placing it.

I always wrap about .5-1" around the backside of each piece. Since you are stretching the material, it tends to want to shrink back to the original size. If you don't wrap around the edge, you run the risk of have gaps open up.

I just bought a roll of scotchprint, but decided to do my own real carbon fiber overlay, it cost a little more and there's more labor involved, but I think it's doable. I'm gonna copy your cubby and storage door with suede and red stitching instead Tpete, I tried getting the same suede that you recommended, but the hancock fabrics discontinued that solid black micro suede. What do you think about this fabric? It's UV treated and foam backed http://www.yourautotrim.com/suheobl.html, would this be good to wrap my dash, cubby door as well since i'm planning to wrap my headliner?

I haven't seen it in person, so I can't really give too much insight. I'd worry about it looking too 'puffy' with the foam backing. Also when wrapping the cubby door, you have to shave the edges down a bit, so the extra thickness means more material that needs to be removed to keep the door moving properly. UV protection on the fabric is a bit of a non-issue unless you park outside in the sun all the time. Mine hasn't faded yet at all.

How has this held up in the two years that you've had it on the car? Any fading, bubling, or pealing?

I'm looking to do this on my 07 nismo.

Also curious to know if anyone has done all the rear plastic pieces in this or any other resurfacing job.

Where can you buy the suede overlay?

No bubbling or peeling on mine.

The place to buy is already in this thread.

Just got done at my first attempt at this on the center stuff. Doors and what not next. Not too shabby for a beginner.

How do you take out the plastic (center console, 2 arm rest pieces and 2 steering wheel pieces)?

There's multiple threads on how to do that already in the DIY. here's the "how to get the center out diy"

You can find the others in the DIY sections.

Pretty good but the weave going the opposite direction on the cubby door is throwing it off.

For those that payed to get only their waterfall and shifter plastic done, how much did you guys pay?

I have some cf wrap coming in for my roof and i have plenty left over so I can do other peices. I was wondering if I do my concole should I sand it to make it smoth before applying or does it stick just fine.

I am considering using the red carbon fiber vinyl it to accent the interior of my Z, considering there is already some red in it. I've orderd a sample to see how it will look, but was wondering if anyone else has used the red?

That's way too much work.

Without sanding it, it looks fine, just slightly textured.

How do you remove this piece? I'm getting some pieces hydrodipped and this is the only piece I haven't yet figured out how to remove - didn't want to break anything. Thanks.

To be honest I don't remember. I believe you take a flat head to the side and it should pop up and then I believe there are two screws you need to get to inside that holds that piece into place.
