  • DS3 Finlands... Err... DS3. :p

    Been posting random pics here and i think it would be better to just post 'em to one place. im still between of making a build thread or just post some progress pic's, but i think it's far better to do it like this, since im not building anything too fast.

    Happened so far:
    wrapped some chrome bits with 3M's di-noc (no, i can't afford real carbonfiber).
    Little bit above rear plate, batongues,mirror covers, door handles, foglight surroundings, lower part of the front grill are the ones showing in the pictures.

    Was also supposed to wrap dashboard, but couldn't manage it on my own, so decided to just add something yellow there untill i a)get a yellow one or b)decide to paint it.
    First week after getting the car:






    Couple of weeks later after some wrapping:






    Will post some new ones when i get my camera back.

    Wrapped rest of the grill last night, will post pics later.

    Edit: fixed some links. :s

      Need to do something radical with the wheels... Maybe for the next winter.
      Black with yellow stripes?

          Thats what i had in mind... Chrome and yellow just wont do.
          Kids in our neighborhood already call our call 'bumblebee'.

            I love what you did with the dash, but don;t really like the black front grille.

                Looks really smart, love all the details done, the fog surrounds for example.

                Nice work

                  Some work done... Wrapped the centralconsole some time ago.
                  Took it off again just fix it a bit and it's still not perfect... MORE HEAT!
                  Did the door handle surroundings also.

                    How hard was it to remove the front chrome? Im in two minds about leaving chrome or going black. I do think painted black is a much better look than wrapping.
