i just bought carbon fiber vinyl for the trim on the interior of my car, I think it looks pretty good....way better than the original silver pieces at least



It's also on the panels on the inside of the doors

 

LOOKS SWEET!!

are you willing to sell yur silver pieces?

 

well....no. Because those ARE the silver pieces, the carbon fiber is a thin adhesive backed vinyl, I just applied it on top of the original pieces.

Sorry!

 

Looks pretty good for an adhesive stick on trim.

 

meh... i prefer my silver trim

 

I really didn't like the silver, I thought it stuck out too much. The carbon fiber is kind of stealth.

It is pretty good for stick on...that's what I do for a living, apply adhesive backed vinyl onto stuff. It's damn near a professional job.

 

i have the wood trim.... i really think it looks too "old fashion" for me... has anyone tried replacing the wood trim?

 

hmm, interesting

do you any pictures of the cf-look sticky trim on the door panels?

 

 

it's a little beat up on this side, dog nails are really not good for your car's interior.....the last time the dog will ever set foot inside my car.

 

looks good! i'm stuck with the bowling ball trim and was thinking what you did with silver adhesive. I just don't trust the film to stay on long enough though.

 

I'm not worried about it lasting, it's supposed to be weather resistant and last 2-3 years on the OUTSIDE of the car, so I think on the interior it'll be fine.

 

The fit looks really good, how did u get in between the leather/plastic on the door? You cant even tell its stick on, well not from those pictures you cant.

 

Don't get me wrong, it's a good application of the vinyl, but I only like the genuine stuff anymore. I don't even like my carbon-look Momo shift knob anymore since I learned to tell the difference. Good job though.

 

f'in dog scratched my front passenger seat so i feel ya there. where did you buy it from? how much was it and does it do the rear silver pieces too?

anyone know if they make real CF for those pieces?

 

I think i heard you cant take off the trim pieces in the door unless you break them off or something. So i dont think they make complete pieces to replace the trim with. Most people that change them just paint those oem pieces.

 

Looks great, good job. I covered my wood trim about a 1.5 years ago with some aluminum vinyl and I've had no issues with peeling, fading, cracking and scratching. Should last for years.

 

There was someone selling the two center console pieces and the piece around the shifter AWHILE back, but I'm pretty sure he didn't have the door pieces done. Also don't know where he got them done.

 

Ok....(whew). After much searching, I found the member that had the stuff. He doesn't post much anymore, but you could try dropping him a PM. Member's name is Odiofyl.

 

Not too bad. Looks better than I thought it would.




And I see your from Jersey

 

heyyyy now. The door panels don't come out, I bought 8 ft X15" and cut it to the shape. on the door panels I gave it extra bleed on the outside and used one of those plastic thingies to push the ends into the cracks between the plastic and the leather so there's no seams. I also used a heat gun to make sure it laid down perfectly.

I bought it on ebay, $3 for 15" x 1'.


In person you can't tell it's adhesive backed, it looks like the pieces have all been replaced.

 

yea i have the bowling ball trim also. i really dont like it. i wish i could do something like that carbon fiber vinyl. but i have no experience so i would probably have a bunch of bubbles in mine, and itd be cut the wrong size or something. oh well. great job on your car

 

Well, I'd be willing to carbon fiber pieces for a small fee....


haha. Yeah, I've been doing this crap 5 days a week for 3 years, I have a little experience under my belt. I bet I could do window tint also.

I should start a business.

 

you live in illinois?

 

Looks great

I was going to ask how you got it to look so good, but then you answered "I do this for a living"

I like the wood trim, but I guess that makes me "old fashioned"

 

real CF > fake CF

i'll take pics of my interior soon... i have a CF dash kit and those pieces you covered, painted SSM.

 

lol.. i didn't mean it like that.. i'm sorry..
