Carbon Fiber dash like a BMW? (pictures of M3 carbon fiber interior included) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

master345 · 10-01-2012, 07:25 PM

I would love to have my FR-S or BRZ have the kind of dash seen in this BMW M3. What is the best way to do it? Wrap? Or can this be purchased?

Check out this awesome BMW interior. (But I wouldn't want to pay for it!)

You buy probably buy the vinyl and wrap it.
The one in M3 = OEM, it's not a wrap if I remember correctly

3M Di-Noc.

If I remember correctly, it's actually woven leather.

Hix · 10-02-2012, 09:39 AM

That is carbon fiber textured leather. You can find rolls of it on eBay and places like that. Just get a very thin pad and spray glue it on there.

If you look around there's pictures of cars where people either wrapped their trim with carbon fiber-style vinyl and also where they overlaid pieces with real carbon fiber cloth and resin. Personally, I want to do the cloth-and-resin treatment to the stereo surround and dash trim piece. Looks so good!!

forget wrapping, im looking to spend few hundreds to get the real cf dash when its released

jadewbj · 10-02-2012, 10:45 AM

This is 3M Dinoc vinyl in matte finish. They make it in gloss too if you prefer that. I haven't gotten around to doing the rest just yet but the two main pieces are done.

I never knew the M3 had dual-color stitched steering wheel. Freaking love it.

Di-noc would be the cheapest way to go, and it's pretty easy to work with. Real dry carbon will cost an arm, maybe a leg as well.

I personally prefer the UFO's to fake carbon. Somehow knowing it's not really replicating a carbon weave makes me feel less ricer. :/

What would be awesome is to take a mold of the stock parts and recreate them in 100% real carbon with an in mold gel coat. That I'd be onboard with.

We only talking like what 3 pieces? It can't be that expensive to get it all in real carbon fiber.

$2900 for all carbon interior.

For carbon "look" interior. Just a print. Not even 3M dinoc quality.

CrazyWookiee · 10-03-2012, 12:51 AM

Oh, wow. Didn't even notice that. Automatically thought it was full carbon because of the insane price tags. What a rip.
