Yeah that looks good mate, just DIY my door handles to R32 brushed ali though so think I want the radio surround to match  :smiley: anyone know of anyone that has used the brushed aluminium wrap? Is it any good?

I've got carbon fibre wrap on mine, looks good and easy to do, will just be the same as ali wrap but in carbon fibre, so yea, easy to use, just need a sharp stanley knife ;)

I'd post some pics of mine but haven't got any decent one's i used 3M di noc vinyl it's textured and looks real
It's even fooled some people asking where i got the r32 trims from, i just made sure all the grain went left to right on all the pieces same as r32/anni trim
