small update. Im not one for any stickers or bs but i did decide to do the synthetic carbon fiber on the radio face and center console to cover up the bland grey dash. I will not add anymore of this stuff as i do not want to over due it.

It looks really good! Hows it do on the contours? Any heating and stretching? Were you able to roll it around the edges?

Yes very little heat and a tad of stretching, also alot of it has to do with the material. You cant stretch it much or it will deform the pattern. Yes i rolled all of the edges and where the buttons go thru, it was a pain but it paid off in the end.

You didnt use a jig? Btw your welds look very clean.

No jig i did it on the car with no weight on the axle. pre-heated then did a big tack at 12,3,6,9 o'clock position. then proceeded to weld.
thank you i like to prep the area very good then when welding i use a large gas lens to make sure there no contamination,
