Came across this video, just as my chrome started to peel off the grill frame. I was thinking of repainting the plastic, but this is much easier, and I have some matte black wrap already :D
It looks amazing, I also wanted to order the grill cover for my Rapid on Super Skoda. I agree the prices are just ridiculous. I will give it a go with the vinyl.
Cheers, i am looking up videos on the topic on this same car and i was wondering if you could do the grille with the 2 inch tape versus wasting a big square piece. Looking very nice there. My blue VRS gen III will look so much nicer with black trim all around.
Yes for what it costs and the join line it really does transform the look! Just clean the old grille well and mine is still looking great…. Tempted to do the wing mirrors black
Hi David, it is still on and looks fine, I avoid any contact with the pressure washer I did try and apply it using 1 piece but I just couldn’t do it hence ending up using 2 pieces… it looks easy on RUclips 😄
@user-ow8ju4kp4r it’s still looking really good, a slight gap in the 2 joins but that’s being really fussy! I hope to upgrade my daily driver soon and get wrapping!
@@PocketRocketGarage we have down graded had the karoq vrs but fuel consumption was crazy. Just for a slightly older Octavia but don’t like the chrome, am glad too here it has held up, did you do the chrome around the doors?
I don’t use the pressure washer directly on the grille the same as badges / decals. It’s been over a year and still looks as it did when I applied it 👌🏼

You've given me confidence to tackle mine! Great work!
That’s great Tom, it was a bit fiddly but looked so good once complete
Good job mate, going to tackle my chrome grille in Toyota Highlander.
I've just imported an Elgrand that's dripping in chrome, you've inspired me to matte black the lot. Nice job BTW.
Thanks! Hope it goes well, I took my time and it is still looking great in the car now
Looks great, got to give this a try
Yeah go for it! I’m sure you will get good results 👌🏼🚀
I want to do mine but i know for a fact ill lose my patience with it, good job on yours mate👍
Give it a try! I had 2 attempts and the vinyl was only around £6.00 from eBay! Well worth a go for sure 👌🏼
Much much better it looks espetialy when the car is white. Great job!
Thanks, I was pleased with the result
Great effort pocket rocket 🚀
Thanks lee!

Thanks for watching! Give it a go 👌🏼
That vhrome frame comes of super easy. You could have done it in one piece but looks cool anyway mate!
All the chaps on the Skoda Forum say It breaks when you remove it…..
Nice 1
Thanks 👍🏻
Nice! I want to this on my Enyaq!
Go for it!
your stretching it all in the wrong places i like to see that after a real hot day and see how it wants to pull in
It has lasted a year without any movement and the car sits directly in the sun most days, must have got lucky 🍀
Looks pretty good 👍
Thanks…. It came out much better than expected to be honest
Nice one Lad
Appreciated

Hey, is this possible to do without a heat gun?
I think you would need at least a decent hairdryer to give you the stretch and flexibility when working with the 3M Wrap
How long did it last? Have you had to do it again?

10h work
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Looks good. How long does it last on you car? I want to do on mine one as well.
So far it has lasted, you got to be careful with the pressure washer, it changes the look so much
@@PocketRocketGarage two years on how did it last?

@@jamieskitt-u9u no, mine doesn’t have any as it is all black, I’m looking at a yeti for carrying camping kit / bikes / fishing 🎣
What happens if u pressure wash ur car
I don’t use the pressure washer directly on the grille the same as badges / decals.
It’s been over a year and still looks as it did when I applied it 👌🏼
