very well done...now tell us where u got the fabric! and is this UV proof? i would hate to see it fade...

 

looks way better than most of the "kits" i've seen for this.

 

Sweet Looks like what i wrap'd my headliner/armrests/and center inserts of my seats with. Never thought about the dash hmmmmmmmmmm.

 

i have to say... IMO looks better than everybody else's gloss cf kit. reason why i didnt go with the kit that is so popular in this forum cuz i think the gloss cf is a bit to much for me, i might have alot of black going on outside my ppw but inside cf?.. dont know about that...
but your fabric cf is really nice, i would consider this.
good job

 

How much was it, where did u get it from?

 

The only thing that i didn't like about the z's interior was the center console....too much plastic.
....I think I kept it reasonably tasteful......IMO, i don't see this as "ricey".

i work as a designer.....so, i have access to a lot of weird materials.
PM me if you are interested.....not sure if I'm allowed to post $$ figure on this thread but, I can tell you that the material cost less than a case of beer (CDN).

 

how did you get the lines so precise? I have a steady hand and a good eye for detail but I don't think I could get every line so sharp like that. It looks machine produced. Could you give us more details and maybe some pics of the install. This would be a good solution for people with scratched consoles like me.

 

it's a really good material to work with.....a lot easier than most people think.
It's thin enough to get a sharp crease line but, strong + flexiible enough to rub down. Once you get the console out, 1/2 the work is done....just take your time applying the fabric.
The patterns are not just prints....you can feel them.
I'm not so sure about the UV effect but, the material is cheap/easy enough to reapply....or if you don't want it anymore, peel it & wipe the glue off with alcohol....back to stock plastic panels.

 

honestly, that looks really nice, and I'm not usually a fan of CF pieces like that.

 

I don't see it as rice, but I have something that may bug me.

Is it just unprotected cloth? Like, if I had a hangnail or something, could the cloth catch it?

 

im sure you got alot of pm's about it. how many rolls you think it would take to do the center, door panels and headliner? id buy some off you if its not a readily available material.

 

Hey man, I PM'd you about getting some of that material from you. Let me know.

 

Oh yeah, I think a DIY would be awesome!

 

it's no better or worse than the stock leather/cloth interior......
I was worried about that as well but, the fabric is durable. Also, I've wrap the areas where it doesn't get consatantly rubbed.

As for the material size, 1 yard will be more than enough to cover the center console.
I think we will be getting more within 2 weeks.
Let me know if you want it....I'll save some on the side.

 

lol..im half asleep. when i typed my last post i thought that was in a pm haha! but yeah...pm me pricing on that. like i said i have a few things i would like to cover.

 

that isnt near rice... looks really good

 

I dig it! Looks like a dry carbon, very close to my buddies new M3 interior look. Good Job!

 

Clean work, but definitely not my cup of tea. It's a bit too busy for my taste...

 

it would be fairly impossible with carbon fiber to get as perfect a weave as this will give you cost effectively. not to mention the surface irregularities.

and this is no more ricey than real carbon fiber trim (to you brickyardrat) since you know, you are not actually saving weight or doing anything other than trying to get the look. and with all the material needed with wet CF I bet it's relatively the same weight.

very cool, I like it alot. are you going to do the consoles on the doors as well?
