Wrapped my center console awhile ago in Di-Noc. Since then I have added the Subtle hazard knob and center knob overlays to further black-out my console. I don't have any hi-res pics of that yet but I will soon:)

Looks great so far, can't wait to see the finished product after the vinyl wrap is done.

I will try and get some better close-up pics tomorrow. Anything in particular that you wanna see? I've since added the Subtle blackout kit for 3 climate control knobs and hazard button..

Some more progress:


2011-07-05_23-21-47_594 by frankensti, on Flickr

I'm basically teaching myself as I go along with this car so it's taking waaay longer than I would have liked. That and I work essentially two full time jobs, one of them being at a detail shop so I'm always wiped and don't want to lay vinyl when I'm not fresh.

Alright finally got the BC BRs installed and borrowed a buddys Rotas (mine are the exact same tho) as they weren't back from the powdercoater in time for install.







Anyone recognize the Fozzy in the background??

Correct - they are the stock Dunlops off an 08 STI but I will be running the same spec Hancook Ventus V12s by next week on a set of satin black G-Forces.
