carbon wraping dash and console now done looks great

[z4phill]

Just saw this on a site my son was showing Me and I was thinking of having my aluminium bits done on the dash and console etc of the zed I must admit I think it looks realy nice like to here your opinions .







Here is what they said about cost and location

Glad y'all like it! Thanks for the positive comments.

Yeah, We're behind domino's on Chepstow road. My wrapping partner mike (funkyboogaloo) is doing it over on Rebel, but it's still us.

Prices are dependant on the vehicle, and we need to look at the actual vehicle to quote for a job however, as a guide, Roofs are around the £150-160 mark and Bonnets are around £120-130. And yes, roofs with sunroofs in are fine!

Trim panels, mirrors etc are more difficult to price... but think £75 ish for a pair of mirrors and £30-50 for dash panels.

The carbon effect trim on the Z4m looks good and i seem to remember someone has done this to their interior door pulls and other bits. It looked really good.

starscream IIRC is the guy that did this to his door pulls, except he used carbon fabric. I have bought some of this to do my door pulls to and would suggest the fabric is a better solution than the film for the interior is it will be more tactile.

But have to say even the vinyl would look better than the brushed aluminium IMO.

Just found a few vid's on youtube showing how to apply the film it looks simple I think I will have a go my self anyone know how dificult it is to remove the panels as I don't want to break any fitting's or clip's

 

[bigshurv]

That looks really good. I'll get the whole car done...........

Is this a wrap or is that something better? It almost looks like matt CF cloth in those pictures, i.e. higher quality

I have a small nick on my piano black dash board so might think about this.

How about a carbon stripe?

you can get carbon fibre twill cloth from ebay for about £10 for 1250x250 IIRC


i was going to have a go at this for the centre console, dash and handles.


just unsure how to get them off.........without smashing my windscreen before anyone says

Before you do it, how about swapping your piano black dash for my brushed aluminium one? Really want a piano black dash!

 

[m44rrt]

There is an aluminium dash and console on ebay at the moment for any carbon projects

dashboard trims are easy 30 min job to get both parts off, the centre console is a bugger, half the interior out to remove the centre console as the trim is held on by 30 yes 30 screws.

tweed,

i have a spare piano black dash, it as the slightest of scratch on it, hardly noticeable but i got it replaced by the dealer when i first bought the car

 

[Tweed]

ooh, really?
How much you want for it?

 

[Taz]

make me an offer, its sat in my shed

pm me where in manchester you are

 

[sherlock]

Tweed. Might be interested. Pm me please.

I'd like to see the entire dash etc wrapped in this carbon cloth, see what it looks like. I just have horrible max power tackiness lurking in my mind. If it looks naff, it could be a costly mistake.
