5D Carbon wrap interior with pics

Done it myself.
Trim was fairly easy to remove if you take your time.
It was a spare set of damaged trim that I covered and done it over a couple of nights, probably totalling 3 hours or so.
Didnt pay a penny as it was left over bits of vinyl from when I done the minis dash.
Before doing it I asked a local place how much they would charge if I handed in the bits. They said £150 and I said see ya.
As long as you are patient its not that difficult a job to do, there are a couple of tricky bits that require a bit of heat and stretching the vinyl.
The vinyl can be bought fairly cheaply off Ebay so buying extra in case you make a mistake doesnt cost you a lot.

Did you just figure out how to remove the trim or did you have a guide?

I kinda figured out most of it by looking at the fixings on the spare set of trim that I had.
The doors were probably the worst as the trim is secured from the inside so the door panel has to come off to get the trim off.
The easiest was the small bit with the lights control on it and the centre console was fairly easy too, theres not much holds it in place.
The main dash panel although looks like it could be 2 pieces it is all in one and doesnt come apart.
If it helps I can post pics of the rear of the trim to show how they are attached if you are going to do it yourself.
 
Great job just done my door handles wanting to do rest but not sure how things come apart any photos or diagrams to help with this job thanks
 
How do the door handles come off? Might give this a go myself.

OP, very nice job mate, looks flash.
