    vinyl wrap interior trim of w168

    Thought i would post some pics of my recent first attempt of vinyl wrapping. I decided to get rid of the horrible wood trim of my A160 and wrapped it in 3d carbon fibre wrap. Any comments for my first attempt at this? I think out looks quite good and a lot better than the wood.
