vidur, where you moving to?

 

Just another place in Sandy. Garage is right next to the house so I can actually work on the car finally! lol. Its just down the street from where we live.

 

I see. hope the move is easy (they never are! )

 

Got a few frens to help out so shouldn't be too bad.

 

hey whats up guys ogden in here agine ha

 

Next Sunday it is. 1:00pm same place as Cars and Coffee. Please tell me I'm not going there by myself

 

Next Sunday @ 1 is good for me!

 

I'm there! Move all done!

 

Hate it when my car isn't shiny but I love it when the elements come together for a great pic!

 

Vidur.

Lets make my panels all carbon fiber!! I pay you

 

Lol you mean wrap it in vinyl?

 

Do they have cars and coffee on sundays?

 

I really want to come! Sunday from 11:30 to 2:30 im busy. I really want to be able to come sometime and meet up!

Speaking of Carbon fiber and vinyl, has anyone wrapped anything on their TL. I found a thread ill have to post and its something I really want to try out.

 

i wrapped my grill.

 

No cars and coffee on Sunday. There may be people just meeting for the hell of it.

I've wrapped my grill, and pretty much most of the stuff inside my car. Will be redoing it soon cause I've gotten better at it lol.

 

 

oh boy! You need to help me do mine

 

Cool. Check it out in person sometime. The center console is a bitch though.

 

Same thing!!

 

Did you take the doors off in the center console? Or just wrap em on there?

 

Took everything appart so I could spray some clear coat on them. The doors I wrapped while they were on the car.

 

Ill take you up on that! Ive wanted to do this for a long long time!

 

Cool. Just let me know when you're free. Typically I'm free weekends and tuesday and thursday mornings till 10.

 

With school the weekends are the only time I am free. How long do you think it would take? Everything youve done I want done ha

 

I can't really give you a time cause it does involve a lot of prep work, have to order for materials, I don't have a lot left, and for the center console depending on what you want done it may have to be disassembled. I drove around without the center console for a week but that was when my setup was less convenient.

I'd say be prepared for 5-6 hours just on doors and stuff that doesn't have to be taken out. If the center console has to be dismantled I'd have to wrap the pieces later on and assemble them once its done. Also depends on what finish you want, like clear coat on the vinyl which makes it darker and tougher in general.

 

Well we should meet up sometime and you should give me some pointers! I was looking at this thread https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/f-170-diy-3m-di-noc-carbon-fiber-grille-interior-diy-page-4-a-765483/
got me interested in doing this!

 

Its not hard when you get some time working on it. The downside is that it wastes material to get used to it. I'd say wrap flatter surfaces first to understand what a heat gun can do to the material and then move onto complex shapes. The worst is the front grille and the side trim pieces on the dash board.

 

So, Are we meeting up tomorrow?

 

I'll be there for sure. Lets not make it awkward people! :P 1PM at the place where cars and coffee is.

 

Where is it located? just remembered lol .... might see you guys there!

 

Imma be there, Beans & Brews 675 West South Jordan Parkway

 

Any pics? How was the turnout?

 

Spass checking in, Salt Lake, Utah... not sure how long I'll be here for -- depends if I sell my Acura or not. All the same, just saying hi.

 

We had one pic. I didn't take it though. Might get posted up soon.

 

And welcome!
