Carbon Fiber Trim on Saks Interior

Looking for opinions here....

1. Would CF wrap trim look good on my Saks two tone interior? (Seats are whitish/tan, trim is dark black wood).

2. Has anyone done this, and do you have pics? Searched but could not find anything.

Here is a pic of the saks interior if you dont already know.

Thanks!

Really?? I love that trim, its by far the best in the W204. I'll buy it from you and give you my aluminum and you can wrap that instead of the nice wood haha.

Good move. I have some of the di-Noc trim in my car and while nice, its still vinyl. The black wood is much nicer.

If you had the ugly Birdseye maple I'd say cover it haha.

Vinyl Carbon Fiber

I just save a lot of money and bought the 4d carbon fiber on ebay for 10 bucks (2 pieces one for the trim and one for the diffuser). The center console is very easy to remove. For the side I cut the piece and used an xacto blade knife to cut it. The top is easy since there is a slit that the blade will fit in and glide. For the bottom I used a plastic CC as a guide so I would not cut the fabric. Go slow and outcome will be nice.

I also was in the trial of wrapping the diffuser since those add ons are $300. So far the wrap is on..no bubbles..
