just baught one - how easy are these to fit anyone done one?

i bought the kit from ebay, first few panels i used the spray glue, the the second half with tin of high grab contact adhesive, had it on about a year now and im going to have to re do all the ones i done with the spray can as they are peeling off. it is really hard to get perfect and you will probably have bits that will always annoy you but everyone thats looked at mine has said its very impressive but given the option again id pay to get it done

iv got 2 tins of carpet spray anyway - if it works it works if not then it cant look worse than tweed!!! lol!!

 

Dont waste your time. It WILL come unstuck and then it WILL look worse than the tweed.

Jazzy Jaysingh was sellign one of these kits, said it was cos it was paper thin and not worth the time to put it on, as soon as you start to streach it it will tear and look crap, and if you mess 1 bit up the whole kit is worthless..because its hard to get someone to supply you with a single bit, or if you get the material your self you might not get a colour match.

 

As said it's worth the time and money to get the professionals do it.

And IF you want to do it yourself there are plenty of places selling good quality vinyl . You just use the tweed bits as patterns and cut it out. 3m at £5 a metre = £15

But FFS sake stick with black. Coloured vinly looks really Sh**e. Particularly the light colours;)

it is black! lol! might just staple the shitters on!! lol!

thats the stuff i used, got half a tin from the bodyshop i use as they had it left over when trimming a del sol, really good stuff just make sure you get the panels right first time as they are a nightmare to get back off when dried if your wanting to make adjustments lol, im sure thats the same seller i got my other 2 tins from

some tips:

when your fitting the pvc use a heat gun or hair dryer to heat it up a little it makes it easier to work with eg, stretch around things better,

also if you can take the panels out, you can use a staple gun on the back this way you get a nice tight fit as you pull it all around & staple as you go!
