Interior wrap yay or nay?

Vesar · 09-02-2011, 03:32 PM

I want to wrap the center console matte black like M3 has (not because M3 has it, because i like it better) A picture of my interior now

I want to do it like this

I say nay, because the M3 console is leather, which gives it much greater depth and quality. However, might I suggest something others have done: wrap the center console in black imitation leather (cheapest), nice black leather similar to the Dakota leather (not as cheap), or wrap the center console in the novillo leather used in the M3 (not cheap). It's been done before, and it looks great.

I totally understand, but I've seen matte vinyl wrapped interior pieces before, and it gives it a very cheap pastic-y look

Why not try wrapping some other things with it? I'm using Di-Noc to re-purpose some 90s speakers to give them a modern look. It's really a great material.

ok , in my opinion, i wouldnt wrap it. i would just get a OEM performance short shift kit with the knob and get aluminium (performance) pedals and a performance e-break level.
all silver look!
That is just my preference tho. ! Good luck
