Jbyrd,
What did you use to smooth the vinyl into the very small parts like the passenger window switch bezel? I got a squeegee with the kit but I am thinking you won't be able to get into the really tight areas with it. Also, when you were doing the door panels, are their multiple pieces in the door pulls? Seems like that is an awfully deep area to stretch it into.
I am wondering how this stuff would hold up under the hood? The fuel rail covers would look pretty cool wrapped. Don't know how hot they get. The price is low enough I might give it a shot and see how it works.

As for the fuel rail covers I dunno. I have the L 98 so I can't really speak for how hot it gets.

Finally Done!!
I did all that I'm gonna do. Feels good to have it all match now. Next project: Fix the cracked screen...
Im excited/ anxious to see how those hold up... Im worried a shoe might rip it, but the vinyl pretty thick.

If you notice 48x 12 doesn't add any price, so thats what i got for $10 with shipping.
It supposed to be for the exterior. It seems pretty durable and I would trust it on the exterior. Especially because theres no real prep, just clean the part clean. It was easy to install, but I don't know what you mean by "do the halo"

Replacing the lettering has kept me from doing mine for the last few years. I've looked and couldn't find any place to buy the lettering so I've decided just redo the parts and not worry about replacing them. I figure I know what all of them do and the interior needs a little sprucing up.
