It's summer so i guess people are out driving their e60s instead of staying in and blog about them. So even though I have about 2 more weeks before my mods are complete, and its not much to show for now, since its been so quiet around here I figured I'd share some of the things I was toying around with this weekend.

Here ya go antti I really did try my best and spent countless hours on it trying to be patient. The results are good but could be be better I have a few air bubbles as you can see but I know they will go down eventually. Simon and i both agree that the foliatec looks better than 3m's brushed aluminum 1080 series, but the 3m is definitely easier to work with and install because they have mastered the way to make the vinyl breathe. A fusion of the 2 would ne perfect non the less I digress.

More shots will follow when I finish my entire interior.

It looks good. Did you use soap water while installing it?

Nice Ron!

I actually finished all of mine 20 minutes ago. Now I just have that piece surrounding the passenger cig lighters left.

Maybe I'll post pics tomorrow!

Oh yeah, I feel like I want to wrap my cluster or something. I don't have enough of this brushed steel in my car!

P.S. Antti, I totally failed. Foliatec was too hard for me to work with I tried wrapping my long trim last Monday, and realized there's no way I can get it to how I want it to be, so I ended up ordering brushed steel from 3M. Feel a little bad that you went through all the trouble
