I did my rear panel, side panels, flyscreen, wing mirrors, tunnel top and a few other bits, see links below. Not too bad to do, just take your time and have a hairdryer ready for the tight curves!

I have used very similar stuff (matt black 3d carbon look) to do various parts on my car.

Easy to use and stretch. Just make sure you loob up well and get a hair dryer to hand. The more hands the better too.

This stuff is designed to be easy to use, and it is!

PS I got my stuff from ebay.

Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
