Default Got tired of the OLD MAN WOOD look

Wood in a car really isn't my thing... It was NICE dark wood, but I wanted something a little sporter looking. So I bought some carbon fiber to wrap it.

I first tried to wrap it in place..... WRONG. So I then removed my center console (Not too tough).

Here is what it looks like.





I did the passenger side dash as well, but still need to do the doors, which should be super easy, just waiting on some better weather.

Anyone else change theirs? Post pics

Looks awesome! I wish I had the confidence/skills to do this to my car. Great Job!

Can you share where do you get the carbon fiber wrap? Do you need to remove the center console shell to do the wrap?

I did have to remove the console... It wasn't as tough as I had thought. A heat gun and some wrap is all it takes. Could probably have used a hair dryer.

I bought this from ebay Which has a nice shiny look to it.
