Depending on the style of the fender but honestly I rather have OEM because I don't want to look too ricey

P Funky wrote:Yeah, just wanted to add that if we get closer to something on the center console piece I'd be down for that, if it isn't too expensive. I'll be pulling the stock plastick-y piece of junk soon to put in a new HU anyway, I may as well replace the whole piece.

I don't mind the wood, but that flat matte plastic isn't doing it for me

last time i got a quote for a C/F wrap on that center console piece it was about 550.

that's almost as much as a HOOD! yikes!

Okay- in that case: anybody have a good experience with a convincing stick-on impersonation of CF for that area around the radio? And if so, how much was it?

They are very exspensive!!! I used to live right by them. I am not going to knock their stuff, but my friend before I got into carbon fiber got his dash covered by them, paid over a grand and it started coming off in 3 months and they would not fix it
