I like that. Can't tell the color very well in the pics though. Does the vinyl have texture to it or is that a metallic finish?

looks killer! I used vinyl on my door handles too so I wouldnt have to pull them off and wrap them... I would suggest taking a heat gun or a blow dryer and using it on the round corners (ie shift console area, air vents) it will melt it smooth right on there! works like a charm too!

love it, I think if the vinyl is ok on the outside of the car it should be ok to last on the inside of the car.
