Definitely post pics when you get it all done...from a carbon fiber lover to another keep it up and keep the carbon fiber going!...haha...
The carbon fiber for my Civic was so easy to do and has held up amazing...then again mods for Civics are extremely easy as they're all over...

It is a kit...perfect fitment and has no problems with the Vegas sun, so no color fading of any sort...
My friend did/ made all his own carbon fiber on his VW...I'll see if I can find some photos of it...it came out amazing...

Nice. I gave the DIY a shot, but after taking the learning curve into account, it ended up being cheaper to get it done professionally. They are also making me a custom CF steering wheel and shift knob, so all the CF will match.

Does it replace stock pieces co
completely or is this just a cover 3m piece?...if it makes you take off the factory wood and then this replaces it by snapping in then it's a great deal...wes can tell you for sure as his is coming in soon...

It definately isn't a replacement trim kit, it'll just be pre-cut vinyl pieces. There isn't anything wrong with vinyl, but do it right, remove the trim and wrap around the parts (aka, buy a roll and do it yourself). 99% of the 'kits' you can buy are cut to shape/size so they can be installed while parts are in place, they don't wrap around, they dont look 100% right and they edge-peel after a while. You'll most likely find that buying enough/a roll of vinyl to do your whole interior will be cheaper than buying a pre-cut 'kit'.

Wow, I just noticed that kit has 29 pieces. Seems excessive, a bit over kill. To Kev's point, their disclaimer note says "Doesn't cover OEM trim completely".

Exactly. Only 2 ways to go IMO;
1. Like Wes, have the trim wrapped in actual CF.
2. Like someone in Dubai, remove the trim and have it wrapped in vinyl.
Those kits are garbage, civic-nation garbage...
