I started at about 10 and stopped at about 12.30am... Then did about another 40 mins this morning and was ready to go in my car! Luck I didn't mess up! Saying that I wanted to re wrap my wing mirrors as there were a few small bubbles annoying me but that went terribly badly as I tried this evening and I had no patience for the job so ended up wasting a lot of wrap! Oh well will buy more tomorrow! I got a black car so thinking of trying white carbon wrap on the mirrors? Opinions? Bear in my my alloys will be matt black next week!

Looking mint mate! Definitely something I'm going to consider. I'll probably go all silver as my polo is silver too! P.s I can fix your cup holder if nothings broken. I blew mine apart but managed to put it all back together. Still sticks once in a while though:/

Yeh I can imagine mate.

My wrap has come now, just need to find time to do it (which doesn't exist these days!).

Did you cut out the fan icons after you had applied it all?

Yeah, the vents were the last thing I did! Also I'm re doing my Wing mirrors and was wondering should I use the carbon vinyl again because it looked good or should I use a different style like a brushed aluminium vinyl so the wing mirrors have the same affect as like 9n3 bluemotion wingmirrors or s3 wingmirrors?? Did love the carbon look though!

Up to you man.

I'd personally not do brushed alu, that would be one thing I'd get rid of if i owned either car!

The carbon looked cool, maybe stick with that?
