I need carbon fiber

Hello,

I have been frantically looking for carbon fiber for the interior of my car. Can someone point me in the right direction. The only c class i have seen it on is the performance package car.

There are three types that I know of.. It would be helpful to know which you were referring too.. There is the carbon fiber look aluminum trim that comes on the C32, (from dealer or used) there is carbon fiber overlay that you 3M tape over your old stock trim,(ebay) and there is complete replacement carbon fiber trim from companies like MP Design. MP's cf trim is pretty expensive.. like $1300.. You can also just wait and see if anyone is selling on the classifieds.. I believe someone is selling silver CF trim now.. ggong I think?

Link to MP design.. some of the advertisers here sell MP.. I only see C32's mentioned, but I would think they have it available for C55's??

CarLAB will take your OEM trim and overlay it with CF. If I'm not mistaken, there's a couple week turnaround time.

You might have some issues finding carbon fiber right now. I was talking to one of our members at SoCalEuro regarding the interior trim and it appears Boeing is being a CF *****. They're buying up all inventory of CF for a project of theirs.
