    DIY RETRIM professionally. ^^,

    Disclaimer: The following is provided as a GUIDE ONLY, and neither myself nor Ozhonda take any responsibility for the outcomes of someone else doing the following. You follow these steps at your own risk!

    Hi all, well this isnt the first time ive retrimed my car so here it is,
    just to help you guys out
    firstly i trimed my interior white back then because i was very into show cars,
    then it became to dirty looks awsome tho.
    neways heres how it looked before;






    then it started dirty & i could never be bothered to clean it -__-"



    Firstly, cut a big piece of material out, to suit your trim, some people trace there old trim etc, to be honest thats just a waste of time,
    just cut a hole in the middle and anywhere else that has an opening.
    slowly apply the contact bond adhesive glue and spread it around the insides of the door first, then slowly flow it outwards.




    flow the material into the crease's, if you find that you get a bubble use the hair dryers / heat gun to heat it up then slowly strech it out until the shape forms.


    By now you should be up to the corners, use the hair dryer / heat gun to heat it up and slowly stretch around corners and cut slits where needed.



    use your superglue or contact bont to stick down the rest of the trim from the back. remember to pull and strech the material or it will lift after a amount of time.



    With the repeated steps, ive done the Arm rest, my two pillars and my glove box.




    Final result;





    Sorry for the undetailed trimming lesson, im serzly very lazy to type more then this atm..

    Would love to do my pillars in the del. Everything else is black but the pillars are grey and so is the roof.

    What type of material did ya use specifically?? Does it look similiar to the OEM when installed cause i'd want it to match the dash otherwise i won't do it lol.

    gotta look "like the shit" - not "like shit"

    i used black vinyl from spotlight, one for 15 bux a metre and one for 20 bux.
    i went with the cheaper one ..

    diffrence between both is the expensive one is more soft and easyer to shape tho the hair dryer did the trick
