spoken with Francisco in regards to the removal process over the phone. Apparently he assured me that a simple removal with slight spray of goo-gone will do the job.

Went down to Aerotect for some adjustment on my clear bra yesterday, and Francisco and I took a couple pictures while peeling the film off the Wood Veneer, absolutely no damage to the wood's surface whatsoever, great product! I'll post the pictures as soon as I have them ready.

That statement doesn't fill me with confidence.

yeah, well, installation can't be 100% perfect from any vendor anyways, and i went there just to get one of the pieces reinstalled. But then you should honestly give it a try on the center console protective piece, you'll understand the beneficiary of having one!

Anyways, if you happen to live around the socal area, we might have frequent mini meets in Harrison's store now and then, feel free to drop by!

/Cheers

The interior protective film is a brilliant idea. Where can I place my order?

I'm a perfectionist in every sense of the word when it comes to my interior. Nothing looks worse than dull, scratched woodgrain trim. It's impossible to prevent scratching without some sort of protection over the wood.

This sort of thing is exactly what I've been looking for.

For all that worry about the wood surface been scratched/veneer being stripped by taking off the film:

Picture of films being peel off the Wood Veneer



The wood surface remains intact after the film was installed more than a week ago.

Per francisco, these are the pictures taken from Fancisco's Camera on the installation for a 07 IS 250 w/ grey interior.

Obviously he is a better camera man than i do, lol.

Enjoy.





Final product:

I think we all would prefer the shine of the paint without plastic, but I also prefer the shine of the paint without rock chips in the paint. So until someone can make the paint impervious to flying debris, the clear bra remains a great option.

i guess that's what i had been thinking as well. i rather put some protective layers on top of the paint or surfaces that are prone to frequent damages rather than letting rock chips/minor scratches happen.
