You may want to consider redoing the rear deck lid and then remove the "carrera" badge before re- applying the vinyl. Pretty impressive so far though.

Here's my wrapped Turbo.

OP,
You've done all the difficult parts of the car, the rest should be easy if you are going all the way, really well done!

thanks, woow, your turbo is so cool. I like matte black too, but I am lazy to wash it weekly.

Was the front bumper easier to do when it was off?
I left it on.
Looks great so far

I really would like to wrap my center console like you did. Can you elaborate on the process so I can duplicate your results? Please remember this would be my first stab at this and I'm not too smart!

looks very nice.

From your experience, is the time/skill worth $3,000-5000 people are paying for this?
