I've had a look at the pics and the black does look really nice but so did the silver. Also what did you use to clean the surface being wrapped. And did u heat the vinyl up to make it easier to apply?? :roll:

I used IPA cleaner (solvent cleaner) to the parts before wrapping! A heat gun (med setting) was used to the help stretch uniformly over the edges and across the entire part (Melts quickly too much heat.. game over), left to settle for 10mins before putting back on the car! Once back in the car I used the hot setting on a hair drier over the entire surface again as didn't want to risk over heating dash plastics with a heat gun. Then left to dry for 24hrs (overkill but that's what I did)
Take your time don't rush.. rushing causes mistakes!
I used bubble free wrap. But if you do get a bubble just heat up and press your finger against it and hey presto, it's should be gone. If not get a needle to burst the little one, heat and press

Pulled them out with trim tools!
Like I said its a PITA!
The two rings were fine (they are different L & R) but the rectangular one is ahhhhh!!
Was tempted to remove the heater controls but I got lucky! There is only very small tabs holding them in
Patience is key! Good luck
