    Carbon Fibre solutions helping needed

    Had a little search, but im rubbish and impatient and could'nt find either of the things I wanted :hahaha:

    So removing dash inserts ( silver bit ) this weekend, to carbon vinyl to match mirrors :whistle:

    How the fook do you get them of without snapping please :smt055

    And the bottom carbon flipperrooneys, how do they come off, tools needed.. so I dont bugger them :smt055

    Thank you in advance

    you can just pull them off with your fingers. in the picture you can make out where the clips are (metal bits, sticking out).

    if you need to use a flat screwdriver to lift the edge away make sure the end is covered with a tea towel or something equivalent so you dont mark the trim.

    i'm sure someone will give you a more comprehensive guide, if you need it

        Daz, I got a set of plastic trim removal tools for just that, if you want me to check in the garage to confirm I still have them then you are welcome to pop round and borrow them. You start from the passenger door side and work your way along.

                    Im Cheating ... so using the standard trims and wrapping them in carbon fibre vinyl like the mirrors and side vents on the car currently.. will see what they look like sat eve and post up pics :thumbs:

                    If anyone wants a solution might be able to do a deal with the bigdog and sort..

                      Just been out to check, found 4 pieces, no idea how many came in the set

                      Basically a bunch of plastic crowbars with different shapes to allow you to lever stuff out without scratching things.

                      Not WFH myself tomorrow but could take them to work if you wanted to collect in the day? I only work in Thames Valley Park so easy enough for you.
