Thanks. Most of the flaws are on the very edges. Hard to see unless you're up close. The wrap has to actually wrap around the edges and on some of the pieces it's really hard to get that to happen. The pieces that I actually took off the Jeep to do came out perfect. But a couple that you leave on the car, it was really hard to get to the back of them, even with the special tool.

Thanks. Lots of colors out there and it's pretty affordable stuff. I may start vinyl-wrapping all kinds of stuff.

Re-did the wood interior with vinyl wrap today. I like the color. This stuff is pretty tricky but you develop a system as you go. Up close, there are several flaws and at least 2 pieces that I'll re-do some day, but for now, I'm leaving it. I like it much more than the wood trim. Here's some before and after shots.

Nice. But why get rid of the wood trim. :idontknow:;)

It may have been said or done, but if you hit it with a blow dryer or low temp heat gun, you can get it to conform around edges a little easier. That said, can still be a tricky PITA.

Edit: looks like you just covered that.....LOL

It was tricky. I really learned a lot after the first piece. Each piece got a little easier after that. :thumb:
 
Wrap job looks good. I peeled what was done on my other vehicle, and been meaning to redo it since the trim comes off easily...but I cant decide on what color lol. Sadly the trim underneath is perfect except for one spot where some dumbass thought they should sand the clear off.

Thanks. There are a TON of colors to pick from. Does the trim have any residue on it when you peel the old wrap off?

Yeah I want to keep the interior kinda classy and not f*ckboy style which is hard with the Audi. I dont remember much residue other than maybe a little here and there. Not sure what brand the vinyl was either that the previous owner used other than it felt very cheap and it was done very badly on the back side where they wrapped it around the back.
