Discussed the color options with my wife and showed her the pics here on this thread and I'm going with the cf. Amazon has some killer deals on this stuff. I will be sure to get 3M brand that's 1080.
Your welcome. Please report back once it's done

That does look very sharp. If I had a black interior I'd def go CF on the trims; its perfect.

I'm thinking of wrapping my wood trim with graphite 3M carbon.

What size roll did you use to cover all the trim?

Brandon , it's hard for me to say cause I bought my paper at a wholesale shop where they sell exclusively paper (wrapping int/ext , tint etc) to retail stores. They usually sell it by the yard. I think I took 2 yards... just don't take my word for it cause I really can't remember the quantity. Sry

EDIT: I just measured my left over and I still have a 4 feet roll X 60inch , so I guess I took over 2 yards (easy). Man I must of been on some kinda drug at the time to buy so much.....

I was just looking at the different roll sizes that 3m sells. I think there is 12x48 and it goes up from there.

I ordered the 2 x 5 foot roll. I think this should be enough.
