Default where to get CF replacement?

I am looking to do carbon fiber for my interior, but I don't want overlays, I want replacement parts.

Anybody know of a place to find what I am looking for?

From who/where?

And how far does that price range take you in terms of number of parts?

edit: I wouldn't mind paying for replacement parts, but I won't spen $1000 on each piece...

full replacments are retarted expencive unless your going hood, hatch or body kits. This is because they are made in production so the cost of technology is spread out and cheaper. To get custom made parts for the inside will cost you 1000 on the cheap end and $5000 for a custom dash done right. Just stick with random overlays, it feeds the CF bug without going broke and looking bad. I saw a RX7 the other day goign down the street with the entire bady in CF but small odds and ends that where in the cars original color "red". To say the least it looked like garbage until I was 5 feet away and realized it was all CF. Think of CF like gold or chrome. Gold and crome look nice but will cost a fortune to get the entire car in gold or chrome and it looks bad once done. These add spice to the car and should not be to over done or it will not look good. Total cost versus appeal it is just not worth it.
