    No problem, the only tips i can think of are be gentle with the heat gun, maybe use a hair dryer instead and a REALLY sharp exacto blade.

    When it is warm you can pull it loose, reapply pull it loose again and move it. once it is cooled off it seems like a nice and stable covering.

    Really well designed i must say.

    It looks GREAT! :Thumbsup: So is that stuff reasonably easy to work with for an external project, like trim handles, or even the bonnet stripes?

    I did a search for this stuff and "carbon fiber" was all I could find. Does it come in any other patterns, such as wood grain?
