Those pics make me drool! I am looking forward to doing this one soon!

2 more questions for you sir:

1) Is it possible to wrap leather, for example a leather shift knob?

2) Is it possible to wrap the exterior moldings that go around the M5? The things that go dull every 6 months and require treatment with black stuff?

doing this or having this done? the latter sounds easier!

1)im sure you could wrap leather, but the shift knob has to many aggressive curves for it to work.

2)our trim is textured on the bumper, so if you were to sand it down then yes it would work. i wrapped my diffuser and followed it with clear coat.

Yeah I was thinking about paying the stealership $350 (through homie hook up) to get a new shifter trim pice since my titanium is flakeing off, but now I'm thinking that getting this done is the way to go! Count me in too!
