Carbon Fiber interiors
 
Morning all,

I'm looking into covering my OEM Panels in REAL CARBON FIBER
- Stereo surround plastic
- Passenger side dash plastic
- Shifter surround plastic
- Steering wheel plastic
- Both sides door handle plastics

Has anyone done or tried doing this? Where did you get the sheets?

Thank you!

I'm going to steal your thread since it's similar topic,

Approximately, how large of a vinyl sheet do I need to wrap the interior pieces mentioned above)? (Going to use the 3M Carbon Fiber wrap)

That can't be real carbon fiber though, I think OP wants the cloth one where you'll need to use resin, polyamine hardener, and a clear coat.

Not sure where you can get stuff to do yourself, but I know that if you buy overlays that are actual carbon fiber for those trim pieces it will be around 600-700 bucks

That is the best site for carbon fabric in my opinion. Been using them for about ten years now.
