Carbon fiber interior

What should I expect to pay for a quality carbon fiber interior kit? Door lock surrounds, door pulls, gear shift surround, dash etc... I don't want to get ripped off if I find a kit.

I don't know if there is one out esp. for everything you mention. If it's custom made I'd say it'd be expensive.

Well the GLK is still a newbie so you will have to give some time for any aftermarket third party options to become available.

Brabus has a carbon interior kit, but I can't find pricing on it. Their carbon pattern looks like a checker board....lol

I was surfing the web and came across an AC-Schnitzer interior kit for an M3 that's going for $2900.00. I bet brabus will probably be a lot more.

I just had a custom carbon fiber job done on my E Class interior. 10-11 pieces including one slider cover (difficult piece to make). It was done by company called carbon copy creations for $1300. Its professional and very well done. Took about 3 weeks to do. Downside for you I guess would be that it may be difficult to source a second interior for the downtime while the work is done. Here is a link to my thread w/ pics of the work on the E-Class, still yet to be installed.

Good luck with the project, carbon fiber is alway has a great end result.

Thank you for the reply. The work that has been done on your interior pieces looks very nice. I like the fact that you are not afraid to go outside the box and get the stuff done the way want. Same way I feel in trying to find parts for my vehicle...do what others wont try. Congrats on your efforts!
