Went a little nuts with some carbon fiber vinyl.

Did my AC controls with this same stuff a couple weeks ago and Ill agree this stuff is FAWESOME! ill prolly just do the center/shifter console area and be done but great job OP! +1

 

I was thinking the same thing, figured I would sand it smooth with some rough sand paper if I do it. I have to do it, lol.

 

I love the way that looks. I was wondering the same I have the textured pieces in my dash. Will it work? Because i want to do this.

 

Slick work! I've seen other people attempt the 3M Carbon Vinyl with massive failure. Good job bro and thanks for the pics.

 

I placed a sheet over the entire top then heated the material above the holes to stretch it while running my fingernails along the inside lip. Then took an exacto blade and cut off the excess. I did use the primer on the inside lips for better adhesion.

 

Not sure how rough your stuff is but the cupholder I did is painted silver on top. I'm sure you could sand it smoother but I would make sure it's clean afterwards and use the primer on all the surfaces you think would be problematic. Heating it seems to make it more sticky as well as very pliable.

 

awesome job, I am looking at the 12's and already thought of this as well.

Thanks for the pics!

 

NICE! subd.

 

any problems with the plate behind the ac controls? being that it has a weird texture on it, I have an 06 not sure if its different then yours but just curious if you used the primer on it then lad it down and how well did it stick.

Thanks

 

Old thread I know but Im about to tackle this carbon wrap project this weekend. Any tips on removing the stereo/stereo panel?
