Carbon Fiber Vinyl Adhesive Sheets

[86regalss]

I was wondering what people think of the "carbon fiber" vinyl adhesive sheets, I have ugly wood grain trim in my car and want to change the look of my interior, has anyone used this stuff I'm talking about? Does it look "ricey"? Who sells good stuff? I have black interior any suggestions are welcome.

I did it. Bought another dash bezel on ebay so I could test it out and add gauges in my firebird. If it looked crappy I could always switch back to the original. I've had it in the car a couple years and it still looks good. If you look closely of course you can tell it's not real but the wood was fake too!

Thats my thought on it. If its already fake why not replace it with something that looks better. Do you have any better pictures? Where did you get your sheets from?

I couldn't find the real carbon fiber sheets with sticky backing when I did my dash for sale anywhere. May not have been available yet. The stuff from Anvil looks like the hot ticket unless you have really tight curves or coumpound curves to cover. If I need to take my dash apart again I'll probably swap out the sticky vinyl I have now for the real CF stuff.

Here's a link to more pics and there's another link in one of the posts there to all the pics I took in a photobucket album.
