cf trim wrapping fun

whitecord · 05-20-2010, 01:10 PM

well i checked the mail box last night at 10pm and found my cf fabric came in. so i did the 3 easy pieces last night. (grandparents are in town have to wait to finish the center console.)

i have done a few head liners b4 so this wasn't bad at all to do. my only regret was i wish i lined up the cf better so the weave was all the same direction on all the trim. but over all i am happy with it. changes the look for sure.

better pics to come when i finish!!

Looks great!! Can you tell us the tools you use for the labor? I thinking to get the wrapping as well. Thanks

a flat head pocket screw driver and a razor blade. i used wurth high temp spray adhesive to glue it.

Nice! I think my CF came in today. I ordered soo much crap that I have no idea what it could be.

WOW someone else with Lemon interior, I can't wait to see the contrast between the carbon wrap and the leather. What trim is underneath the wrap?

That's a really nice job you did there. The door handle especially looks fantastic - you'd never know it wasn't a factory part.

Hey I have my project going on but I just can't remove the center console out. To be more specific the "ash tray" area. How did you remove it?

You have to remove the entire center console. See my post in the DIY section.

Great pictures Man, thanks for the input. I see on the pictures you cover the little silver part on the ash cover. Well I remove mine and I scratch it a little. I will have to order the whole cover to replace it but that is OK with me I guess that what happen when you are not an expert. I'm not a smoker so I will compare prices between the cover and the non smoker set up maybe I will change it. I will post some pictures when finish. Thanks again
