You can do it with one piece but it's pretty hard. It took me two tries and even then there are two "little" mistakes that I let slide because I didn't feel like re-wrapping a third time. Use plenty of heat and don't stretch it too far. There are a bunch of videos on YouTube on how to do it... I'd watch a bunch before doing it... here's one from Bimian showing how to wrap the e53 steering wheel trim: Bimmian.com 3M DI-NOC - Carbon Fiber Wrap - YouTube
Thanks. I wanted to take it apart but it was hard. Do you know if there's a way to take off only the wood trim?
