Looks pretty good, I did several pieces and they came out decent but I couldn't get the epoxy to go on smooth with no dips or dimples. Even by laying it on thick and sanding it back to 2500 grit. So I kept the door pulls and the shifter surround and did the rest in vinyl carbon wrap. I still have plenty of real carbon and will get some more time in the winter to try a few more pieces. But I just got the silver carbon vinyl too. I did the dash trim in that the other day. So far I like it. Breaks up the entirely black interior nicely.
The shifter surround was thick after epoxy and didn't go back down properly. So I had to dremel out some around where it clips down. I need to buy another one and try it again.
Good luck, great job!!
