Interior Update Poll - your thoughts

I currently have dark wood grain trim and would like to switch it up.
I want to wrap it and am looking for a popular vote to help make my decision a bit easier as I am torn.
A - 3M 1080 CF Vinyl
B - 3M Brushed Aluminum Vinyl
C - Genuine Alcantara Material
D - 3M Silver CF Vinyl

Thanks for your help

C would be unique, cool looking and unricey. CF wraps make me think someone is just a poor ******* who couldn't get CF stuff.

Anything but the brushed aluminum; I've seen the stock brushed aluminum and it looks out of place. My vote would be for "C" because it's unique.

Any pics of the various options? From the description none of them sound great to me... what about gloss black?

Thanks guys.
I don't have any pics at the moment but can get some up.
The cf vinyl is an actual weaved material, not the ****ty look-a-like stuff.

Go CF wrap until you decide to upgrade to the real CF trim.
I did this on mine with 3M D-Noc and the look is OK.

CF Dinoc is very easy to work with, I did my door trim temporarily until I bought the real CF trim. It looks cheap honestly, I would say save ur time & money for the real deal.

Agreed, even the best CF wrap job looks like pale imitation of the real thing IMO.

Have you considered having your trim painted vs wrapped?

That is a spectacular idea actually. Will look into this.

Cool, I think a proper paint job will look better than wrapping... less expensive than getting a new set of carbon fiber interior trim too.

I like the alcantara option. all the cf wrap I've seen looks cheap, and I'm not a fan of aluminum.

I can take pictures of my crappy CF wrapped interior and post them if you'd like. Was like it when I bought the car for all the haters out there
