    Way nicer than plain or painted plastic and way cheaper than SS.

    Ah, so it's just a wrap. I thought you got all fancy and put real CF weave and resin on them!

    Oh well, I'll still give you 5 pimp points.

    I don't know if the Death Star pilot is the guy who gets to hand out the points.

    I can still criticize him.


    Although I Berg might 'force choke' me in return.

    Just cleaned them up with thinner.

    Cut the film to size and stuck it down to the inner lining.

    Heated the upper edge just very briefly to get it to stretch over the lip and tuck under just a little. You can see an in-progress wrap on that one pic with the laptop in the background.

    End result- on a few you can see a bit of the seam on the upper edge just a little. On others it's basically invisible. And when they're back in the boat go unnoticed.

    I wrapped the center of my steering wheel and mirror as well. Curves on the mirror were too complex and it didn't turn out all that great. Steering wheel did though.



    Then after all that was done, I of course wasted several hours wandering around with beer in hand looking for other things I could wrap to give the carbon fiber look... Same side effect of adding more blue LEDs.
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    So that would mean the runner up moves up?
