Wrapped Black Piano Trim

With my OCD driving crazy, finally got around wrapping it.

Really happy with it and a hell of a lot easier to maintain.

Looks amazing

How did you get that piece off or is there a document online you can refer us to on disassembly?

Also where did you source the carbon fibre wrap.

Many thanks

1: Use trim removal tool and pop the piece under the arm rest first.

2: Then using your tool work your way along. The clips will pop out but you need push quite hard as they are tight and whole section comes out.

3: Go to your local Car wrapping company to get the wrapping this way you can see what you are buying. They will properly even wrap it for you if you don't fancy don't it yourself.

4: If you are wrapping it yourself you will need A:Heat Gun B:Squeegee C:A good sharp small Stanley knife.

5: Reinstalling the trims is really easy start from the back, took less than 2 mins and clip the little piece by the arm rest in last and your done!
