This is the first I've heard of the vinyl lifting.

Hmmm

Like I said if you wrap and let sit for a day your good to go

I just wrapped a few parts in my f150 with a vinyl carbon fiber product from some shady ebay guy that another f150 forum member had good luck with (not Di-noc). I have been having issues already with it lifting in places even though it hasn't been above 60 degrees here in Maine for the whole week. Thinking about trying this stuff in it's place before approaching the Z.
most likely is the adhesive that came with the vinyl is weak or you didn't clean the area good enough

I did this to my interior arm rest and it was HELL. If I had a second chance, I would not even do it again period, not to mention doing it to my center console... It doesn't look OEM and will never flow as well as the Bimmers. Do it only if you plan on keeping your car forever because these things will mess up your interior pieces permanently, not to mention devaluing it.

Default Carbon Fiber Wrapping

Not sure if I officially started a thread for this...Ive been on here for years and have been doing cf wrapping for plenty of guys on this site and a bunch of others. I just recently became a sponsor on here again so if anyone wants anything done let me know.
For those that dont know what i do is take a stock plastic or fiberglass piece and do a permanent carbon fiber overlay on it and finish with a nice coat of clear...Fit when the piece is returned will be perfect because it is an oem piece. No crappy stick on pieces here, real CF. So anyone who is looking to get anything done just let me know.
Pics of my work can be seen by searching this username or also "Tonester1011"
I did a majority of my work while using that name.
I will also post pics of any new jobs shortly. and as i go.
Thanks for looking.
