Done and dusted. I'm still to neaten up a couple of small areas, however any critiques are welcome.

Looks good actually... Much better than I could do.
Only thing I'd suggest... Remove the B pillar badges

That looks good bud, you also have the 'wide angle' mirror on your passenger mirror like i do ahah! Looks real good mate i'm gonna have to do this soon. Does rain etc. affect the Di-Noc?

How did you go about removing the inside door panels where the window switches are? Also did you wrap the pillars on the car or did you remove them?
I cut 2-3mm from the edge of the vinyl, then used the hairdryer to heat the panel and vinyl. Then slightly pulled back the panel 1mm ish and used the blunt side of a knife to push the vinyl round and to the back of the panel.
I didn't actually remove any of the panels.. Did them all in situ. The only parts I removed to wrap, were the mirror caps.
No idea... Never used it on the exterior before... I bloody hope it doesn't!
I've seen other people use it on panels before, and has lasted ages. Only seen one guy say his mirror caps peeled after a few months, but I guess it's all to do with how you wrap/secure it.
I am considering taping the inside edges to reduce the effect of peeling in the long term..
Yep very
Although I went outside at 3 to start the wrapping and by the time I had finished it all, I looked at my watch and it was 8pm
I guess time flies where you're having fun
Probably going to take off the carbon, on the steering wheel media controls.. Keeping the centre though.
It's really easy to do
For the centre console, remove the headunit and lower tray. There are 2 torx screws either side, and one on the top. Once removed, take the 2 screws out on the reverse of the console, which connect the cup holder and hazard light switch.
Lay the material on top, heat it up with a hairdryer, stretch round the corners and trim the edges. Easy

Okay so I just filled her up to the brim with petrol. I'm going to drive very calmly and low revs for this tankful to see how much my MPG differs... I hate having no MPG trip!
I'm trying to estimate the MPG. Currently I get 300 miles from a tank. I think a tank is 45L, however reckon I play it safe and only use 43L.
At 43L (9.46 imperial gallons) and 300 miles, I'm getting roughly 31-32mpg. I town drive (5-6mile journeys) 2-4 times per day. Has anyone else got MPG figures to compare?
