did you trim the vinyl to fit before you wrapped or wrap and then trim afterward?

I cut it and leave about an inch extra on each side and then trim it when everything is wrapped.

Looks great! A cleaner job than I did. Mine has a few wrinkles and is peeling in some spots on the dash around the A/C vents.

Maybe the next time you wrap a part, you could share with photos on how to do it correctly so we can all do it as well as you have done.
