I went ahead and ordered a sample piece 2x3in and they are going to mail it to me for free this way I can see if this is what I want to do.

That's what I did originally also. They ship real quickly.

i think it looks like you did some good work.. i like the window switch plates for sure. the cubby hole i think looks good.. i probably wouldnt do it to an undamaged part, but i think it was a great solution for your problem.

i must say, however, that i think the cubby door looks much cleaner/classier without the Z emblem.

I agree. I took it off the day after starting this thread.

How much would it require to do the
Switch panels. I have a 350z with
Some minor scratches on my drivers
Side panel. This would make it look
Alot better.

Basically measure the width and the length and add about an inch or two beyond that.
I ended up doing each plate at least twice since this was my first time and was getting used to using the stuff. The Adhesion Promotor made a huge difference for me. In the driver's side pictures you can see some minor air bubbles. I re-did it using the A.P. and it looks perfect now.

Just to give an idea of price, I bought a piece 27" x 25" and it was about $39 including shipping.

Looks great!! I did the same thing with the interior to my 350 but I used the 3M Scotchprint 1080 Black Carbon Fiber Vinyl since it has that gloss look I was looking for. I got my vinyl here: Metro Restyling - Carbon Fiber Vinyl - Camo - Woodgrain Vinyl Wrap

I could definitely have used it on my 350. If you looked at the plastic wrong, it scratched.

this is such a cheap and amazing mod. everyone should do it, and DIY!! don't go off paying hundreds for some guy to do it for you. the material for an entire interior trim is about 75$. watch some youtube videos, get a hot blow drier, and have some fun doing it! will post pics of my new interior in a few weeks once i get back to my z!
but guys, i say don't cover the leather trim. thats what makes the interior classy. instead, cover that hard plastic stuff on the center counsel area.
