    Wrapped - my dash centre console, I see it every day up close, it seemed much easier to get the sleek finish I wanted.

    Exterior - if I was doing myself.

    Wrap baguettes
    Plasti dip badges and grill/+ surround.

    If I was paying someone I'd get everything wrapped.

      How come you would plasti dip the badges and grill but wrapped everything else? I'm paying someone to do it as I can't do it lol,

        For small or complicated contoured parts plasti dip is way easier and quicker. Also even the most unhandy person can do it.

            This, I plasti-dipped my Mazda badges recently. Folding and stretching vinyl to go around the badge and then re-stick it would have taken me a lot more effort and patience than nipping out to the car every 20minutes to give it another coat.

              The best analogy I have for it is when you're picking a label off a bottle.

                      1 can sorted my front grille, but make sure you mask off effectively, and don't spray more than you have too
