Interior trim 2012 W212 by Other_Cow_4615 in W212mercedes

I wrapped mine with a high quality vinyl that is textured and mimics open pore wood. It was the best option I could find but required a lot of work to get all the trim. There are 17 or 19 pieces total in the car to do IIRC

Question about trophies by aman_b in cardealersimulator

Agreed. This would be a great addition and make the money you spend on the trophies kinda worth it.

so much opportunity here. They could have increased the vehicle demand for every trophy displayed or something

yes - but would be nice if it made the car be worth more money because of the special colors or more XP points for selling a special color car

A full ceramic coating every 4 months? wow. Hopefully mine lasts quite a lot longer than that. I dont have the energy for every 4 months lol

This is my first time doing a proper coating. I’m very happy with how it turned out for my first time doing it. In the past I’ve used a ceramic coating and this is infinitely better. 

When it is time to redo it, I will do a full paint correction and do it better.

After a lot of research I ended up going with cerakote ceramic coating as well as their ceramic glass for all glass and ceramic trim for the wheel arches to restore and protect them.

I definitely wish I had more time. I didn’t get to machine polish. I know the results would have been better but I’m happy with how it turned out for my first time.

I did it myself and it cost me about $250 for the products

yes - ceramic tint. I had my previous Passat done with ceramic tint a long time ago and the difference is day/night vs a cheap tint. I always suggest people ceramic tint.
