Some CF vinyl out there is a thicker fabric so it'd be a pain to do. I'm not sure if that's the same stuff.

You could take one for the team and find out?

 

couldn't have said it better myself.... I knew "somebody" had a good product and what I was looking for. I was willing to pay the extra to know I was getting the right and well made fabric I wanted.

 

If you do, start on something small. The "stuff" from "somebody" is proven in what seems to be easily workable material, so if you do take the plunge try a small piece first. That's just my .02.

 

Yup, any variant on the material and it could change the whole outcome of the finished product.

The material that "somebody" had is extremely thin and flexible. It almost felt like solidified paint held together by a screen backing but much more durable. It's very silky and drapes over objects.

I wouldn't want to cover the center console with anything heavier than that.

 

Is the stuff somebody had the exact same material as the Euro Dyne stuff, some of these posts are talking about how it is extra thick?

 

yes it is the same material.

 

i Have some more fabric now.....Let me know if you want / need some CF fabric.
it's the same material....
I'm glad that everyone's happy with the purchase.
Thanks.

 

^^^ awesome. Yeah i love it because it's not as distractive as gloss CF...and *gasp* it's lighter than 99% of all overlays out there.

Our plastic center consoles are truly pieces of shiet. I don't even know how I got half the scratches on there but now problem solved.

 

I am interested somebody I sent you a PM hit me back i want some of this stuff looks way better than my Blah interior

 

how is this any better than havijng dry carbon wrapped interior pieces?? Just price?

 

IMO people throw around the term "dry carbon" way too loosely. To my knowledge there isn't a single dry CF interior piece available. Everything I have ever seen available (either through a company or custom fabricator) is wet CF. Dry carbon is a completely different process then laying wet CF, is much more expensive, and wouldn't make any sense to use in an application where you are covering an original piece as the point of dry carbon is that it is lighter and stronger than a comparable wet CF or fiberglass piece. Dry CF does not mean matte in look, it means it's pre-preg resin versus laying the weave down and covering it in resin which is what all of the products available are.

To answer your question, IMO whats the difference? Neither is saving weight and both are literally gaining weight, in fact I believe an actual overlay or CF wrap job would be heavier. So basically, if you like the way this looks go for it. It's cheaper and probably lighter than alternatives available. If people think it's cheesy, whatever, so is overlaying pieces to make them look "light" but actually making them heavier. For me personally, I wouldn't do anything like this and would rather companies make REAL products that replace the original pieces. In either case most of our car's interior is cheap plastic which is relatively light and wouldn't save much weight anyway.

 

I finished my first shift boot last night. It looks amazing. Ill post some pics up later on . I want to wrap some interior stuff but my spec v's center isn't one piec like the z so its hard

 

he said the stuff was "a 35 oz vinyl"

 

That would pry do the same exact thing and have the same effect.

 

It was dark, on camera flash only, so the pics are crappy. My bezel is also in the process if getting wrapped and it looks crappy.

 

Here is mine.. I wouldn't do the whole center console if I had to do it again. It was a b*tch to do.. I still have to do a fine cut around the heated seats area and either lay in some carbon there, or paint it or something. I'm undecided at this point so I am not doing anything just yet..

 

looks very nice, jim.
nice work.

 

There is a vendor selling genuine carbon bits for the interior as well. Look really good but they have different color carbon as well. Just a heads up.

 

That looks awesome bro. This just pushed me to get my whole center console done!

 

^^ that looks fantastic. I still think i would **** something up lol. Ive never done anything like this before. That would be so much easier to clean then stock as well. I wanna do my entire center console and the door switch covers.
