Looks great. The plastic scratches so easily, this is the perfect solution. I didn't know you could remove the whole panel! Also, anyone trying to attempt this, also take a look at the 4D carbon vinyl, I was very surprised as I have seen and tried both 3M dinoc and 4D.

Thanks A little advice for people who are going to do this!

When wrapping the center console panel, make sure to wrap all the way down at the seam where front panel and rear panel touch, because the rear panel can only be installed from straight up, cannot be angled, if you dont wrap all the way down, the front panel will push the vinyl up and ruin it :/ although not SUPER noticeable, but its preventable

Approximately how much did you use to wrap up the center console? I'm thinking about doing this to prevent scratches.

If just the center console, 2 square ft should be enough
