- HOW TO BLACK SATIN WRAP YOUR CAR INTERIOR TRIM! In this video I will show you how to vinyl wrap you interior trim.
I love the interior of my Mercedes Benz E63 AMG, however, the one thing that I always wanted to change was the outdated brown wood grain trim. To me, it just made the sports sedan look old.
I decided to vinyl wrap my wood pieces to a nice satin black. To me black has always been a timeless color and with the satin finish I think it gives off just the right amount of shine.
Let me know what you think of the results in the comments below!

![How to Change your Car Interior to Real Carbon Fiber (Carbon fiber Skinning/Wrapping) [DIY]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/GhG9_ptRhwg/mqdefault.jpg)
It turned out really nice. I found this video because I want to add the woodgrain to my vehicle lol
Thank you! And I’m glad you found my channel! 😀
Adding the woodgrain!?😮...Lol! Nothing wrong with that. 👍🏽
Same but like a light oak wood trim.
Lol me too well update mine lol but this is a great video
Me too! My w212 has black seats and black wood ash trim,so boring.. will wrap with matte woodgrain one day 😁
me too!!!
Amazing. Good to see it can be done without moving trim.
Finally someone with taste. The understated black color was a great choice. So many people use funky colors or that carbon stuff and it looks like it's after market (aka cheesy from unqualified designers who think they're artists, but really aren't).
Thanks for the comment and checking out my channel! Yeah, I like more of a “factory” look myself.
These videos are really great! Clearly you are putting a lot of effort into these and are wayyyy underrated. You should definitely make a driving video! :)
Thank you very much! I’m definitely going to start doing some driving vids soon! 👍🏽
A really well executed job properly explained. It has given me the confidence to do a woodgrain wrap over the current brushed aluminum trim in my E class.
Thanks 🙏🏽 Good for it! If you mess up just remove it and start over 👍🏽
Wood grain wrap? Are you being serious or clowning?
Great video, I was looking for some pointers. I've never done vinyl wrap before but I'm pretty confident now that I can do it. Say goodbye to grandpas wood grain
Nice Job man, you just inspired me to do the wood trim in my acura. Might try a brushed steel wrap. Great vid 👍
That’s awesome! Thank you! 🙏🏽
Pretty good that’s an understatement YOU DID A GREAT JOB !!!!!!
Thank you very much! I appreciate the comment! 🙏🏽
Good job if that's what you like. I think the wood trim looks much better and adds a touch of class to the interior.
Thanks for the comment! Yeah, wood is definitely classic. I just want/wanted something different. I would love to have the black wood trim.
I've been looking for a video done without removing the trim. Thanks.
Glad I could help
Lovely!! Much better than before. Totally cool!
Keep grinding 🔥 great tutorial 🤝
Thank you. I appreciate that!
Awesome video bro. Gonna be trying this out for sure.
The thumbnail is how I look at my car when I had that woodgrain trim thanks for the video 🔥 helped a lot
😂...Glad you liked it!
beautiful work man thanks for sharing
Thanks my boy 55 amg bout to look crazy
Love the vid. I have a 2010 E550 with faded wood trim. This is a perfect solution!
Good to hear!
That’s funny I’m here cause I don’t like my wood trim as well 😂
Im actually going to do the opposite to my car. It has black plastic and super glossy piano trim all over the place. Going to replace small pieces with a black/chard/dark gray wood grain wrap. Thanks for this video!!
That sounds pretty cool. Good luck! Thanks for watching channel and commenting.
Awesom video deserves way more views!!
Thanks! I appreciate it 👍🏽
Looks great, Man. Very clean and classic.
Thanks! I appreciate it
Thanks for the video! Good result! I have wood trim in my BMW 5 series wagon. I want to cover it in the same way you have.
Thanks for the comment. Go for it!
OUTSTANDING!!!!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Cute! I need to get rid of the wood grain in my van. Bought teal vinyl from Vivid about 2 months ago lol
Thanks! Okay, that should be cool. Good luck!
Wow thank you for this!!! ❤
You’re welcome. Thanks for leaving a comment! 🙏🏽
This is a really good video !
Looks great
Looks amazing. I plan on doing this to my E550.
Thanks 🙏🏽! Go for it!
Well done sir!
Thanks you!
dope 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks 🙏🏽
Dude your videos save me money 💰 keep it up beautiful work brother
Thanks! Will do!
@@DriveTalkCars thanks again
Another great video. I’d be interested in you doing an update video after a couple of months to see how it’s been holding up!
Thank you sir! Yeah, I will be doing some follow up vids to some of the mods I have done lately to see how things have held up. 👍🏽
and in the end? how did it hold up? Do you still recommend it doing it this way? Nice video btw@@DriveTalkCars
@TheRealpl0x Actually it held up well. I would recommend it if you are looking to change out the look without spinning too much money or having to source a complete set of replacement trim pieces. Also, it the removal of the vinyl is pretty easy and no residue (in my case) was left behind.
Good job, looks great
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Nice job. You may have inspired me to fix my car interior!!!
Thank you! I’m glad you are going to start working on your car.
Great job!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Looks great. I'm hoping to get an S class soon too.. might do mine in white.
Thanks! Go for it!
Great video! How has the Vivid Black Satin held up so far? Does it get a lot of fingerprints/oil? Is it easy to clean?
It actually holds up pretty well. The only thing is the rounded grooves that my trim has. Some of it isn’t laying flat. But that could be my fault or just not enough surface for the vinyl to stick too. Other than that it is good so far...
I'm here looking because I wanted to find out how a wood grain vinyl would look lol I wanna do the opposite of what you did
nice job
Thank you!
wood looks better
I actually like woodgrain, but the black looks good as well
Hey man I wrap cars and if you want to save some money instead of prep spray use the spray way glass cleaner
Thanks for the tip!
Very nice
Thank you 🙏🏽
Whoever thought plastic wood was a good idea? Gotta be a boomer thing. 😆
Jesus! Thank you for making a video where you don’t take you car apart to do this!! Face palm to literally every other video! Thank you!
You’re underrated ash
Good job, But I prefer the wood.
Thanks! Yeah, wood isn’t bad. Just wanted a modern/different look. 👍🏽
How did you do the center console ?? Was hoping you would of showed that part 😫
u got a beautiful car my friend
Thank you 🙏🏽
I thought the woodgrain would look better before you showed the results. looks nice! good video.
👍🏽 Thanks for the comment!
This is the easy way, I gotta think that over time it will peel away from the edges. It needs to be wrapped around for it to be durable.
Nice job as a suggestion try dark color wood wrap
Thanks for the tip!
how well is this holding up ? my wrap guy said it would fail and slide off over time, especially with excessive interior heat
I never experienced any sliding off or issues. Held up excellently.
That looks really sharp, definitely updated compared to that old school wood. I am helping my son who just bought a 2011 E350, black in and out. I really liked the satin finish you chose, it works to give that custom updated look. I was considering piano black like I have in my Macan, but it’s very delicate to keep clean. How have you found it to keep clean? Are you using anything special that you prefer? Thanks for the great video.
Thanks for the comment and watching the video! Black on black E350, NICE! Yeah, I was going to do piano black as well, but as you mentioned, it gets "dirty" so fast with finger prints, etc. The satin can show oil from hands and forearm, but all in all it is pretty clean looking most of the time. To clean I just use an interior cleaning product. Works well.
How has the held up to heat in a car interior? I live in south Texas where it gets really hot. Worried the adhesive will break down or it will start to peel.
So all in all it has held up nicely. However there is a part of the trim that has a curved lip on it and it came off a little. But that is more of a issue with the trim not the vinyl.
looks terrific. You need to show how to cut the excess. thanks
Ok next time
I have a Lexus RX 350 can you wrap the steering wheel wood ???? I did order from Amazon Vivid glossy carbon.
I have never tried doing that. But I don’t see why you couldn’t though. The only thing I can think of is over time it might start to lift from all of the use. However, there is a vinyl glue you can get to increase the holding power. Good luck 👍🏽
To each their own. 😂
I want to go the opposite way.
Can I use a hair blower instead? Also can you show how to do it were the Shift stick is. thanks
Yes you can!
I want to do this to cover my piano black in my car, how does fingerprint show on it ?
i know i'm late to the party here but maybe someone can offer a suggestion. i have a beautiful 96 f150 xlt (medium green top and bottom, silver thru the middle - gray interior. i was going to cheese it up with the wood grain trim until i saw your transformation.
based on my exterior/interior colors is there an accent trim color some one would be willing to suggest ?
(...and don't make fun of my 96. it was my buddy's pride and joy until he passed away from cancer - named after him my truck is "Quincy" 😇
And there's me adding wood vinyl to my car trims
I love the wood trim in my E350....However, it has become faded and MB charges $4000 to restore. Rubbing compound has not worked, and afraid to try Brasso. Thank you for the video and idea.
$4000!?!? Yeah that's too much in my opinion. You can purchase new trim for that much. I like the vinyl. And you can always change it out if you get tired of it. Thanks for leaving comment
I have same problem with the burled walnut in my 2012 E350 sedan (W212). After taking off a trim piece and inspecting, I found that the wood "veneer" is micro-thin and is glued to the backing plastic. The veneer is stained. It's the stain that has faded from the sun's UV rays. It would be easy to refurbish if the "top coat" was just varnish, but it isn't. The top coat is "clear plastic" that's 1.5 mm thick. I think the piece was put into an plastic injection molding machine after the veneer and stain were applied to get the thick clear-plastic top layer. There's nothing you can do except replace trim pieces, or "wrap/paint" like shown in this video. Note ...... I just received a court settlement notice about this, where 13 owners took MB to court. You night be able to get partial or full replacement from MB depending on age of W212, and when you tried to get MB to fix it.
@@kirkharris8729 my 2011 E550 is doing the same! I'm curious to hear how it went... following and please keep updates..
Looks awesome, can it be taken off? I want to do it to my leased car
Thanks! Yes, it definitely is removable.
can we do it without heatgun i dont have it i want to install on my car
You can use a hair dryer. The heat relaxes the vinyl so you can stretch it (not too much) and wrap around angles/curves/corners…
@@DriveTalkCars thnx bro but have question if we do that outside car and we wash will not be removed from the car?
The vinyl is made for exterior use as well. Washing the car normally shouldn’t result in any issue. However, that may vary depending on how successful the application.
Looks damn good man!
Thank you!
What’s the song @ 7:05
What about the heat? If it gets too hot in the car will it just get all messed up?
I haven’t had any issues with the heat. However, I do have tinted windows all around. So results may vary…
@@DriveTalkCars thanks for the update!
😦👏🏽🏆
What kind of gloves are you using?
I just used regular gloves. There are gloves specifically for vinyl wrapping so you don’t have resistance when applying vinyl, but I don’t have any.
I am looking to get a really cheap 2001 W203 C220CDI, but the wood inside is all scrached up to the point where its worth removing it all together (even if it requires revoing the dash) and wrapping it in carbon fiber looking vinyl. Idk what to do with the seats still but thanks you showed me how to do it even without removing the trim at all. Good job, keep up the nice work
Thanks for dropping a comment and checking out the channel! Good luck with the new Benz!
Is that heat gun cordless? If so what brand?
No, it is corded.
@@DriveTalkCars ok thx
Its look like you did a careful clean job but did u notice how many people preferred the “ before “ with wood over the “ after” without. Im sorry but thats a down grade if you wanted a cheaper car without wood why didnt u buy the volkswagen jetta instead of the BMW ?
Are you sick of people who cover up the warm look of natural wood and cheapen the look of the interior of their car?
Natural? To each their own I guess. The wood in a car does not look natural to me.
@@MattB787but plastic vinyl is more natural to you? Ok 😂
What are you driving? A Maybach or something? 😅. I’ve never driven in a car with “natural wood”.
@@Packer1290 Mercedes only uses real wood
Mines faded so you know..
Went from Benz to a Camry 😂
What about center console?
I kept the piano black
I'm here looking to vinyl wrap my interior WITH wood grain! 😂
😆 It is whatever you like that matters 👍. I am actually looking to replace trim with OEM black wood grain.
@@DriveTalkCars
Thanks for the vid, CZcams is my inspiration to get $hit done.
Looks great but you know trim pieces come off with a flat head screwdriver and you could have wrapped them put of the car. Would have been faster and easier
Thanks! Yeah, I had to redo the front dashboard trim and took it off that time. 👍🏽😀
the trims pop out and click back on?
Tuff
I don’t know it’s just I like wooden in my car thank goodness I only drive Lexus I won’t cover wooden in the car I found them beautiful clean them not cover them.
Thanks for the comment!
Fuck im trying to put wood grain and thiis guy covers it 😂
You covered up beautiful walnut with dull boring black 🥲
Looks a lot better man!
Yeah, I think so too! 👍
Looks better before 😂
Really? Better than the black? 😀 Thank you for your feedback.
@@DriveTalkCars best way is to walk into a dealership and see what they are using on their latest models
Wood trim looked better
A lot of people say that… thanks for you comment and checking out the video. 👍🏽
Tacky. Why not get the factory carbon fiber?
Couldn’t find a full set 🤷🏽♂️
Nice, what are those rims mate?
19” AMG factory wheels
You just remove the luxury 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wood looks better
Thanks for the feedback
90% of the footage is out of focus
I’m not saying it looks bad but the wood finish definitely looks much better
Personally, I disagree
@@mustanggt35r44 you being a Mustang guy, I don’t think you would know about luxury wood finish.
@@pokerNGold I have wood finish in my car, good try at the personal attack on me; how about that you boast to be a gambler with your account? How much have you wasted?😂 id rather save and invest my shit than throw it away. Certain cars deserve the wood, others don’t look right, some look good both ways, it’s a personal preference, not a personal attack 👍👍
@@pokerNGold take your gambling addiction and leave chump😂😂
@@mustanggt35r44 I never made a single personal attack. Your CZcams name is literally Mustanggt35 which is why I said you’re a mustang guy. I have nothing against mustangs but they don’t seem like the type of car that would have wood interior trim which is why I said what I said
Damage nice interior made it horrible ….
Technically...I didn't damage it. It is just cover with vinyl wrap which is removal. 👍
looks way better than the wood. gonna try n do this on my car
Thanks! I thought so too. Good luck with your project 👍🏽
You literally debarked a car. 😁😂
If you don’t want wood trim then don’t buy a luxury sedan. Go buy a proper sports car with stainless, brushed aluminum, or real carbon fiber. Vinyl wraps, whether inside or outside, are cheap ugly ways to look like a poser And also ultimately ruin the surface beneath the rap.
Went from classy to cheap plastic look .....
Why do people ruin their cars doing this? Congrats you just killed the value of your e63. The type of people who do this are the ones that buy these cars with over 100k miles, beat the snot out of them, ignore maintenance then complain that they’re unreliable
Thank you for your feedback. Thankfully, it’s vinyl so no permanent damage to the interior. No Mercedes Benz were harmed. I promise. I did have over 100k miles, but the maintenance was done 👍🏽.

He just have a bad taste
Great You just ruined it, that looks like shit
Nice but....wood trim is way better.
