SS badge is upside down, but I think the pics don't do it justice. Looks good though.

the cobalt pieces are pretty tricky compared to other cars i've done. especially the door trim pieces around the handle, must have super sharp exacto knife and a good hand. also the large trim pieces are a bit tricky since they are a block end shape. most cars are very flat at the corners, but the cobalt corners are like squares which makes it harder to wrap without making a extra incision in it to release the stress of the material. overall it is do-able. you need to buy the fabric, a spray adhesive, a gel type fabric glue for hard corners, small fabric scissors, sharp exacto knife (hobby style, not the box cutter style), and around 4 hrs of patience and skillz!

the wrap looks good, about how many square feet did you use? I'd like to do this to my dash (with black) but I'm not sure how much to get.
