[QUOTE="Strider, post: 104856, member: 314"] OK, I'm not good in writing and please do forgive me on my red indian language; but i'll try. [u]Material[/u] Matte black PVC sticker, 12" X 9'-0" (more than enough). Bought it at Sunway (beside Dai Ichi) for RM20 [u]Tools[/u] Pen knife 12" metal ruler Pen/pencil Test pen (to push the sticker where your finger or nail can't go in) [u]DIY Procedures[/u] Cut the sticker as size below: 26mm X 9'-0" X 2 35mm X 45cm X 2 25mm X 9'-0" x 1 Please note that the unit used here (metric and imperial) Please refer to attached image I used the 26mm X 9'-0" sticker for trim panel no. 21 and the similar one for the front door. The balance of the sticker go to portion "A" of trim panel no. 1. Trim any extra sticker. Mirror image the procedures to the other side. The 35mm X 45cm sticker were used at portion "F" trim panel no. 2 but it need to be cut into 3 pieces cause of the bend. Each piece should be overlapped the other approximately 5mm. The balance of the sticker goes to portion "E". Again trim any extra sticker and repeat the procdure to the other side. The last 25mm X 9'-0" sticker to be used at portion "B", "C" and "D" with again 5mm overlapping. For trim panel no. 14, it need a very small pice approximately 35mm X 15mm. Repeat again these procedures to the other side. Now all the stainless steel/chrome trim panel already covered and I still got a lot balance of the sticker and i used it for panel no 5 and 7. [u]Tips[/u] 1. Try to minimise air buble during the proces, If still got, use pin to blew it and push again the sticker. 2. The 5mm overlapping are necessary cause the PVC sticker will shrink after a while 3. Do not use a single piece over a delicate bend cause it is really difficult 4. Cut the balance of the sticker from the trim panel really carefull especially where the rubber lining exist 5. Stick the sticker along one side of the trim first before bend it to the other side. Good luck to who ever want to try. [/QUOTE]
