Title: Carbon Fiber Wrapping? Post by: jazzyjerry on January 25, 2014, 12:41:02 AM thinking about wrapping some interior pieces in carbon fiber. Any ideas on what would look good wrapped? i already got the cup holder and where the shifter is covered in CF wrapped. I was thinking the door panels and maybe th hole center of the dash inkling radio. I don't want to looked riced out either.

That'll overdo it. Reason? The part where the radio and center vents meet. You'll have the CF stop abruptly and then want to do the center vents. That's when it'll get too far. My .02. Obviously, its your car and you're going to do what you want. No one can stop that.

Here's your picture ya filthy animals ! Title: Re: Carbon Fiber Wrapping? Post by: Rich01 on January 26, 2014, 10:21:32 AM Carbon fiber.... or gloss black in that area (hate the new color of ny plates). I would also do a gloss black for the emblems. Nice ride BTW. Create a profile!
Title: Re: Carbon Fiber Wrapping? Post by: jazzyjerry on January 26, 2014, 11:52:13 AM I upgraded to red jdm emblems to go with the red suede theme I'm doing inside and I have white custom platrs on the way
Title: Re: Carbon Fiber Wrapping? Post by: AZcaveman on February 06, 2014, 10:16:48 AM I have an SE so it comes with CF trim on the shifter surround, cubby lid, and door pull areas. You should/could just buy SE pieces?
Title: Re: Carbon Fiber Wrapping? Post by: jazzyjerry on February 10, 2014, 12:52:44 PM already wrapped those and i don't have a cubby, so I'm guessing i could buy a new shifter bezel and doors. it looks cleaner as well. ill look around. thanks :)
Title: Re: Carbon Fiber Wrapping? Post by: Rich01 on February 10, 2014, 05:52:31 PM I wouldn't worry about that Jerry, the oem does not match the carbon fiber vinyl so it may look weird. Just use the wrap that you have and wrap the same areas as the oem.
