Thats Fu***** awsome. I wish someone would come up with interior carbon fiber molds like some companies did with the 240. It would help with weight savings. Hell if your wraping the parts your half way home, you may be in business!

all the parts that i did are only plastic so they weigh close to nothing anyways...if someone really wanted to lose some wieght in the car they could get rid of the pieces...what i am doing is totally for looks...

I completly understand your goal and it looks very good. A while back i seen were a company was doing a dash, door panels, etc for the 240. There goal was to loose weight in the interior of the car while keeping the looks. You did a very good job on this man, I wish i had those skills. take care!

Very Very clean, when you say its wrapped in carbon fiber did you just take the sheets and lay them over the plastic interioir pieces, and then treat them and let them set to harden to it? Or are these complete replacement pieces that you made by using the originals as a mold?

other than the fact that it probably will be prone to sun-glare, it's very well executed (i'm just not a huge fan of tons of non-dry-CF added over oem parts). Very nice stuff w/ those audio-related piece (I like the JL logo).

How about a how to write up? Please include where you sourced the CF from and any additional materials needed for the install.

How much would you charge to do a center console from the shifter to top gauges on dash? And what would the turnaround time be? I'm willing to ship my stock stuff up there if I don't think I can handle doing it myself.
