Wrap Your Interior Trim! Forged Carbon | EASY E90 BMW DIY

In this video I show you how to wrap your interior trim. This video will give you an idea of how to accomplish this on any car really. I am working on my 2008 E90 BMW 335i. I wrapped my brown wood trim with a forged carbon look wrap.
The E91, E92 or E93 share very similar trim.
This wrap was super easy to work with. I used a piece 5 x 2 feet in size. If you do not make any mistakes you can get away with that for the full interior. If you do make a mistake you can easily do a seam given it's very easy to blend the pieces. The pattern is very forgiving.

You honestly have the best diy

[@ltdasilva93]

If my N54 didn't make me poor I'd pay top dollar for your services. Thanks for the DIYs man. You should try get some sponsors to give you parts for the B58, N54, and the N55

[@eastcove8151]

Just wrapped my entire car with your instructions. Thank you very much keep up the videos

[@Stance_Mindset]

Best e90 335i tutorials!!! Love your channel!!!

[@miguelcervera2120]

Excellent video, was thinking about doing this to my E90. Thank's

[@bumsniff34]

This video is inspiring me to do my e93.I love that you can really go individual with the finished product.I have mineral white paint work so I'm going to go white carbon fibre on my trim.Great video thanks for sharing from the UK!!

[@tman7022]

This is really cool, thanks for posting it.

[@VehicularDIY]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@gears367]

Thanks man great video, appreciate the detail in which you described popping out the trim without damaging it

[@daymonpancheri8846]

Hands down BEST interior wrap I’ve seen 😳

[@julioviruez6150]

I really like it, dig it more than any other ones I have seen.

[@mozo.524]

Looks dope I like the forged carbon look👍

[@Tune2Race_]

That does actually look really good! Wasn’t sure I’d like it but refitted it looks awesome 👍🏼

[@uchennaoj6710]

Let me be honest your videos are to a high quality and straight forward, love that. Every one of your videos are taken step by step and not many people do that rendering the view to guesswork. Hands down you are one of the best DIY channels I've watched when it comes to car content. Yet again I love your videos and hope many more to come.👍

[@irontrev1640]

Thank you for being our Guinea pig!! I may try this on my X5, my wood trim is starting to show cracks. Still on the fence if I like it in the e90, it’s different, but looks good, thank you for the DIY!

[@paintskate610]

That looks amazing I have regular carbon fiber wrap on my e92 but I’m definitely considering redoing it with this stuff

[@Joelkswagen]

Looks badass as hell, nice work!

[@RobertGebel]

Great tutorial

[@Alpine.E9x]

Ayeeee! Finally! Looks sick!

[@loveordie4]

Very clean bro i like it. Keep doing your thing!

[@MohamedIsmail-mw7hh]

You have got a new follower from Dubai, the best DIY I have seen 👍🔥

[@machtschnell7452]

Very nicely done. Sure made me happier to have the dark aluminum hexagonal trim in my 335is. Since I am an oldie, wood veneer looks more luxurious to me.

[@jasonsmahoney]

You can remove the as ash tray cover by prying one layer deeper and it will pop right off. Then you don’t need to glue it back together. You can also wrap over the silver accent and then just carefully cut it out. I wrapped mine in an Avery brushed titanium and it came out great. Best interior refresh you can do for about 60 US. I looked at the factory aluminum options and at over 1000 US it was an easy decision to try wrapping.

[@cainezeblaine]

That looks mental, I'm definitely going to do this.

[@Druwoods]

Great wrap skills. Not my favorite look but crushes the wood trim.

[@josephkiser9221]

Great work man!!!

[@xadoreu]

Best explanation and installation video!!! Thanks!! This is going to help me a lot when I do my e92 in a few weeks 😁

[@stevenhensley61]

Did you finish your 92 yet? If so do you have pictures of how it came out?

[@simonhaycocks]

Thank you for showing how easily it can be done. I tried doing this to my last car, an E36 which had wood. It came out ok but not great in some places, i suspect partly because the wrap i got was too cheap. I've got an E92 with brushed aluminium trim which is ok if a little boring. I'm so bored because of the lock down i might have another go but with some better quality vinyl thanks to you video 👍🏼

[@andybuckley7092]

looks amazing my friend

[@technopro-kz4xv]

It looks great 👍 better than the wooden style which is like outdated. Very well done!

[@zackchoo3661]

you did a good job man , it look nice

[@simplicity7957]

Looks amazing 😍

[@CamperPrius]

OH MY GOD WHAT THE HECK!!!! IT LOOKS SO GOOODDDD

Always a good watch.

[@Mikon901]

Looks fantastic

[@1pjodan]

Looks great, I wanted to buy a black trim set, this looks like a cheaper solution thanks! I love your car wish it was stick though then it would be perfect ( in my opinion) keep the e90 vids coming!

[@erenix3909]

i think it looks great! good taste!

[@jozefautersky4725]

Great job, looking good.

[@oleksandrbordun9488]

It's looks fantastic, will try to repeat)

[@benrage5373]

Looks amazing

[@erikwithak6555]

I plan on buying an e92 but it has the wood trim so I’ll definitely give this a try

[@santiniinpr]

Great video man thanks!

[@Alphawolf6541]

Can’t believe I found a video of the exact year I swapped my trim out for forged carbon 😳

[@youbarajsharma7603]

completed mine today, ashtray top lid on my LCI was clipped together and came off and re-clipped back easily, so didn't had tonuse JB weld, the silver trim too came out easily, i used a pointed nail and gave a little hammer stroke from the back!!

[@MrNicoe36cabrio]

Very nice and a lot better than the wood print!

[@tmc8516]

I just ordered me some forge carbon wrap, will be doing this to my e92 next weekend 💪

[@Wolff36]

Looks awesome.

[@Vgk36]

Omg 🙌🙌🙌🙌 I LOVE IT.

[@brendanbrock6940]

I love it boss❤❤❤

[@Kipitrl]

Looks good

[@Dru26JC]

All of a sudden I regret buying brushed aluminum steel. That pattern looks amazing.

[@drazenveselic2902]

nice film,nice work

[@ChrisChaos209]

That's crazy... I JUST did this with left over Avery Gloss Black Metallic that I had used for my roof a while back! Lol Good shit man!

[@g07hamprinc38]

Looks awesome, better than the traditional 4d carbons out there, all the boring piano blacks etc etc. Mine's all alcantara, but yours is a brave choice, and very well executed. PERSONALLY, I it very much

[@skillz1855]

Pretty Sick

[@dgiroir6344]

Bravo! Looks Awesome! I cant figure how I missed this video. Every time I saw your interior I was like when did he do that? I'm waiting on my wrap to be delivered today. Question: What the hell is forged carbon fiber? Thanks Brotha

[@jimfryar1]

Nice!

[@ludak83]

It looks so much better than the wood trim. Great job.

[@DC_E90]

I FKEN LOVE IT

[@BMWI-gk9wh]

You could easily fill and delete compartments with styrofoam and leaving the wrap over. And shaping the styrofoam to delete and hide a compartment completely.

[@FPSAnarchy]

Damn, nice job. What software do you use to edit vids? I like the flying info

[@DomiY]

Looks good. I am in the middle of wrapping my e93 with VVivid FCF in the matte finish. The texture of the film looks and feels amazing. I’m curious however, why you would use Windex instead of isopropyl alcohol? cleaning agents such as Windex could attack the paint or reduce the adhesive strength of the film.

[@EndOfZou]

That’s dope

[@mannyN54]

Awesome vid 👍 I was wondering what size or how much you ordered to wrap everything ?

[@AshwinLB]

I think the forged carbon looks better in matte but the gloss is still dope

[@Murat-2020]

Love the way this turned out. Can you please mention which one exactly you've purchased? And what sizes Thanks in advance!

[@krisgriffin9090]

Nice.

[@wewal5290]

Look good

[@juniorwilkinson8968]

Nice

[@FindShindoHere]

Did you use the Avery wrap or the 3m wrap? Thank you.. looks dowp im ordering as soon as you reply...

[@BrotherRobb]

Doing the same but with black matrix

[@pauljasondimasaca2462]

u did a good job ... i wanna do mine to gloss carbon fiber im just scared i might break some tabs

[@breibreii]

nice!

[@soulreaperx7x]

Not a fan of the wrap but great instructions. I'll be using this video to replace my wooden trim soon.

[@bryanalmodovar7503]

One thing I do not like about gloss wraps is the orange peel look if gives. Did you happen to get that type of finish in the end? Otherwise looks awesome! Ive been wanting to do this in my Durango!

[@pixelcharlie]

Did you have any problems slotting the aircon vents back in those holes with the Vinyl folded in at those areas? I saw from another KZbin that you won't be able to slot the vents back in perfectly because the Vinyl folds will get in the way of the locking fasteners.

[@grqfes]

I like it but I think the silver dates it so I’d make it black ideally

[@Jammysandwedge88]

It’s leaps and bounds better than the wood look, but not my taste, reminds me of my kitchen counter top. Each to there own of course

[@roninbushida1180]

Love the steering wheel. Where is it from?

[@hasimhasan9250]

Suuupeeerrr.....

[@tahatatilbal]

Holy shit you have some skill.

[@jonredd650]

I'm a wood guy but this looks nice

[@johnhutton929]

What size sheet did you buy it and do all the trim in your car like the dimensions?

[@hugomabry806]

Any other colors the website kinda hard to navigate. And will any wrap do? Or certain kind for interior ?

[@zoober2217]

I want to see a video how u do retrofit cupholders on the dashboard. U will be the first guy who recorded it. I know this is possible, but i cant find any information about it... :D

[@moenaboulsi23]

I want to use the same material since its easy to work with but a different design, can you provide a link please?

[@aniee9272]

Love it 100

[@MrAMGvideos]

did you wrap the rear trim in that 5x2 piece as well?

[@E90Jayy]

What exact options did you pick during checkout

[@E90Jayy]

What exact options did you pick when you bought it

[@humblebeginnings988]

Wood trim in the 3 series just doesn't look right to me... Luckily (or unluckily, depending on who you are) I have the brushed aluminium interior, the matte finish and the fact it's real aluminum I feel just adds to the sporty feel of the car. However it is easily damaged and my drivers door trim has been heavily abused, as well as the trim right above the Idrive screen (someone stored their phone there or other odds and ends perhaps?) great DIY and personally I dig the wrap, different from the stereotypical carbon weave look people usually go for. Great informative vid, as always! Keep up the great work!

[@CarlosMartinez-tp3zl]

I have the brushed aluminum and I love it but you're spot on about easy to damage . I used a vent mount for my phone and it scratched up the trim below the air vent 😭

[@humblebeginnings988]

@@CarlosMartinez-tp3zl yeah it's very unforgiving, and if you don't live in Europe sourcing good replacements is expensive. $500 per side for just the front door trim...

[@MissionKid]

Textured forged carbon wrap paper is so much better

[@lukedavies8737]

Please advise which brand of vinyl wrap that is? I am in South Africa so can't order from the link. Is it 3M?

[@stefanmaddock5516]

You have the most monotone voice by good god you're videos are to the point and no nonsense. BZ to you. Does the forge carbon come matte?

[@stefanmaddock5516]

I actually like the polished effect once it's on the piece. 👍 Great work!

[@jamestehuna5915]

I love this guys content been a while since I’ve been on KZbin got a bit of catching up to do btw dose anyone know if the modem dash out of a BMW will fit to a E92 BMW?????

[@MXNG]

Hey, it looks really awesome. You make it look so easy! BTW where did u purchase ur wrap? Available on amazon?

[@VehicularDIY]

Thanks! I got it from a site called Metro Styling. www.metrorestyling.com/

[@MXNG]

@@VehicularDIY thanks!

[@kevinhuynh303]

What size wrap did you find suitable to cover all the trims?

[@0obasho0]

How much vinyl do you suggest purchasing? I have an E93 and plan to do the rear trim pieces too. Awesome tutorial as always

[@VehicularDIY]

I'd suggest 5 x 2 ft. If you want to be extra safe and have enough do 5 x 3 ft. Thanks!
