Painted the inside of the switch covers and wrapped the top.





Did my the chrome wing and used some new 3M tape to seal it.



Had some left over so I did my key

 

Looks great! Was the chrome trunk trim hard to wrap?

 

Thanks! It wasn't too bad, had to have the wife hold the heat gun while I stretched it around though.

 

What's the texture like on that wrap?

 

It's fairly smooth, but you can feel some texture. I'm sure it's to give it that 3D look. I am debating on coating them in some clear coat.

 

looks good

 

Looks good.. i took my rear chrome piece off when i did mine so that i could fold under.
there are only 4 bolts holding it in place.

 

Generally speaking, when wrapping things in vinyl, do you make the cut-outs (trunk release and camera) afterwards? What steps are required to make it precise, and do you shrink more afterwards?

 

The easiest way to get the best results would be to take out the camera and trunk release button and wrap over the whole piece without worrying about the cutouts. Once that is complete, cut slits in the center of the cutouts and wrap the excess material onto the back side of the piece.

If you are wrapping and don't have the ability to wrap around, wrap the material as tightly as you can into the crevice and cut/tuck with an X-Acto knife.

Heat is your friend for a good wrap.

 

This is exactly how I did mine. removal is necessary as there is a gasket along the top edge.
