I'm not saying it wouldn't look good, am saying I don't think it's appropriate for a 430. The carbon fibre look is so heavily associated with racing, sportiness, etc. which fits in with how the AMGs are billed. Having it on an S430 would be like wearing trainers with a pinstripe, wool suit.

Aside from interior trim, I'm going to explore this as an option for my front lip and ear diffuser. I've been thinking about this for a while and now that there appears to be a reputable installer, it might be time.

Same here, as my lower lip has a bit of rash on it. Definitely cheaper than a re-paint...

Also I didn't cover up any leather wrapped pieces... that would be c-r-a-z-y
Things like the sunroof overhead console between the courtesy lamps are cheap plastic in s430 and s500, they are wood in the 600 and 65

Done using 3M's new 1080 vinyl, upgraded version of their DiNoc product.




















How do you get the chrome? I want to do this to my 2001 S430 with the same color interior

I apologise for digging back up this very very old thread but I am hoping someone may have some pictures. Purists please turn away now as this isn't to all tastes.

I am thinking about installing a double DIN android unit in my W220. I also want to be able to put if back normal so was going to get a 3rd party central fascia trim. The ones I have seen will not match the current wood so was thinking about carbon wrapping all the wood trim. The current wood is a little orange so it may be faded. I have searched for images everywhere for a W220 that has grey and carbon, lots of e-class but none that would really help. This thread is the closest I have found but as its old the pics wherever they were hosted have disappeared. I'm hoping that some one may have saved them and would be kind enough to share.

Thanks and apologies for the dead thread resurrection. BTW I did PM the OP a while back but go not reply so he may no longer be active on the forum.

Current interior is orion grey. Curious to see how the carbon would look breaking up the two greys.
