Did you ever do anything with the grille? I have a 2017 Tech and I want to carbon fibre wrap the grille but not sure how difficult it is..

Old thread, I know.

Trust me I'm no pro, get some quality wrap on ebay and wait for a hot day. I think I did this just before Independence Day and it was a scorcher! Just be patient and use a credit card to smooth out the flat portions. I wasn't keen on using a blade so have sharp fingernails for edges.

Work from the center and out no matter where you are working.

Don't be afraid to use a lot of material, or to start over on a section if your not happy with how it turned out. Believe me if you got up close you would see a bunch of imperfections.
