    "Vinyl" interior wrapping????

    Has anyone out there seen like import show cars with that slick dash wrapping??? Ive seen it done especially on integras, some with designs, some just solid color....i know its not a "vinyl wrap" by definition....im not actually sure of what its really called...i was wondering if anyone out there knows of what it is and how its performed...

    Super street did an article on one of the shops in southern california that dows it. True to teh normal superstreet form No materials were named just a bunch off smart ass comments to the owner of the shop. HTe abuse that some people go through for free advertisisng

    Maybe you're thinking of Interior Design Film. Folia Tec makes it in about 10 different colors and you paste it to your interior pieces. Looks good IMO
