    Finished red wrap on trim pieces this weekend. The black-cube door handles were worn. Had some wood-grain dash trim from the 325i that held the wrap better because of the smooth surface. Took a little practice to get used to working the corners. (If at first you don't succeed, try, try again). We will see how well it holds up on the door handles this winter. Color in the photo looks a little pinkish because of the florescent lighting in my garage.

    as you can imagine... my fingers are killing me lol but it’s incredible how handy hog rings are when upholstering

    About to purchase Matte Black vinyl for super cheap, 11$ for 1Ftx5ft to wrap my trim in a nice satin finish, looking for part # to the M logo in the bottom trim currently lol

    Lol not learned just seemed more logical than the DIY’s I read through, your making me feel like I should’ve wrote a write up. I posted this on my IG story and everyone keeps asking me how much did it cost me and everyone goes ape shit when I say 40$ lol

    First begin on the two wings and make your way into the steering wheel going up to the 12 o’clock strip or down, I chose to go over left to right because I had so grabbed so much thread from the kit





    The kit comes with double sided tape, use it generously on all the areas that you feel will come undone while seating the material onto your steering wheel, I made sure everything lined up before applying the double sided tape as you can see here (after you remove the back of the double sided tape, there’s almost no chance you’ll be able to move the wrap if you make a mistake so be wary of that



    These areas I was crucial of because one DIY I watched on it literally wasn’t lined up in the slightest and to me defeated the purpose of doing the wrap in the first place.

    I am by no means the authority on doing this lol I have gaps, You can see the disgusting underside material in some areas, some areas one would think “could be tighter” but trust me, I stretched... I pulled, damn near split my fingers open and it wouldn’t budge lol much further than that

    I love OEM Alcantara wheels but I know how poorly it wears with almost no usage so I decided to go this avenue and it came out impeccable. eBay seller asked me what I wanted and I said black Alcantara, M Tri stitching, & a yellow 12 o clock stripe since I plan on doing yellow brakes & maybe yellow seat belts in my sedan this fall lol

    All in all, I’m pleased and I plan on installing it this afternoon and wrapping the trims later on ...

    Now it’s time to install my Alcantara arm rest from Coby Wheel
