3M DINOC Interior Wrap Beginning to End

[david]

I started disassembly of the interior. Glue arrived today. Carbon Fiber wrap is supposed to be here soon. Ill add pics of my progress. I have never wrapped anything, ever so we will see how it goes. Disassembly was pretty easy. going to take the vents and radio controls apart from the faceplate tonight

How did you get the vent out?

 

[david]

I used a door trim removal tool but it's basically a curved screw driver. The vent pops out. Just be gentle with it

Progress-disassembled more and cleaned

Now would be a good time to upgrade the shifter cover/plate to an 06 chrome one with leather boot.

 

[david]

I don't like the 06 one. I'm wrapping old one in CF that's the plan anyway

I saw online someone used a 350z shift ring and boot on a g35-wonder if that would fit our FX

 

[david]

Order got messed up :-(. No dinoc yet so I did the headliner while I waited! Upset about my eBay order. I used someone with perfect reviews and ratings but no luck yet

Very nice dude ... looks like the top part still has some rinkles though ... Looks like a carbon interior wrap modd is next on my list really soon:wub:

 

[david]

Yep this is a test piece. The edges are tough!
Hope to improve quickly

Painted the shift panel obviously . Couldn't wrap it.

In 1 week I got the interior color change, suede headliner, and 3m wrap done all DIY all while working 6 days a week! Now for some rest

I like that shift panel in black. Good work on everything.

lets see the head unit!, did you wrap over the wording?

 

[david]

I didnt end up with enough wrap I have a piece left that may fit but I have to make sure the grain/design is going the same way. If i do it will cover up a few words but I do not need the words. I know where everything is and I dont plan to sell the car

You can use a DYMO printer and reprint the labels for the radio controls. That's what I did after I CFed mine. Also for the edges use a heat gun to strerch the cf and give a nice finish. This material has amazing stretching quality and will look a lot more fitted.

Adam, got any pics on the DYMO labels?

Adam, got any pics on the DYMO labels?

Andy, here is one, It's not exactly the same size of the font, but close enough imo.




I need to redo the radio bezel cf this weekend, it shrunk in one place due to heat and me over cutting it months ago to make it fit, so will be redoing the labels again. For those of you who have black CF DYMO also makes clear tape with white fonts so it can literally be applied onto any surface.

Cool, thanks for the idea Adam.

 

[Skillachie]

CF the grill maybe? :wub:

 

[mbarb15]

just a bump for this, but did any of you try to spray it down with a cpl of layers of clear coat after?
