Talking CARBON FIBER INTERIOR ON W204!

I finally finished vinyling the 3D carbon fiber on my interior wood grain and dam it looks really good, i dont think ive seen any c300's with carbon fiber interior but if anyone has done it send me some pictures!!

i will post some pics of mine tomorrow. i did a really good job since im good with vinyl and removing the interior parts were soooo easy.

So removing the door pieces were easy? And yeah many people have replaced with CF wrap or real CF...do a search. I'm waiting on my actual CF to come in.

I'm glad you think so! lol

I could not figure out how to get the door panels off...I was worried about breaking the clips so I just gave up

Definitely please! The existing DIY does not make it seem easy.

azn...im surprised you payed that much for someone to do it incorrectly. the professional way is to have all the lines go from left to right. some of your pieces are correct but the one by your AC controls are not. i payed $30 bucks for more than enough vinyl and did everything perfectly myself.

There's no correct or incorrect direction for the weave to flow. The AC control one I wanted to break it out and have the weave converge at the horizontal plane. Also the side doors I wanted to converge at the mid point. Call it artistic quirk or what not, but it was done on purpose, not by accident.

You tell 'em Mike.


To OP: I know you are a Newbie, but you might want to hold off before you start insulting one of the most perfect, pristine examples of a modified W204 C-Class on the planet.

OK. It definitely didn't sound like a compliment.

I see both views. First time I saw Mike's a thought the same thing..but then I'm pretty artistic myself and I like the way you can make the weave seem to bend around corners.
