Center Console Wrap?
does anyone know how i can change the center console and other interior parts in the same plastic? would regular wrap work or would i need to go above and beyond for fully custom?

Those look like actual carbon fiber parts with alcantara and very little gold wrap something like that is no joke cost wise.'
Edit: You could do carbon fiber wrap but you wont get that same shine/ weave depth you would get with actual carbon. |

CF wrap looks like crap.
Don't do it. Anyone who says it even remotely looks real is either selling it or blind. And like CatalystPLUR said, that looks like someone actually made real CF interior panels. |

That's the interior of the Bulletproof/Amuse Project car.
Real carbon and alcantara. Regarding your question: I wrapped my carbon 3M vinyl a year or two ago. It's pretty simple to do, but it won't hold and bubbles are easily formed. I removed it again a little later. |

i guess i should have made it more clear, i wasnt necessarily looking into using carbon wrap, just wrap in general if it was possible to darken the black plastic pieces but if it only lasts around a year and half give or take then i guess my answer whether to try or not is no aha. do you have any pictures of what it looked like when you wrapped it? |

Yes, there are a few options, you can replace them with the JDM black ones, or vinylwrap/plastidip your original omes.
