Has anyone installed Carbon Fiber Interior

Does anyone make a carbon interior kit for the E55? If so what is the cost. I think it would look hot on a flint gray car.

At the LA auto show I was talking with a Brabus rep about it. They do make a kit,and in pretty much any color carbon fiber you want. Black, yellow, grey, blue, red, etc... but I do not remember the cost. In the w211 catalog they gave me, it does have a pic of a carbon fiber interior and it looks pretty sweet.

i have spent more time working on this than i should. i have dound a company for 5500 but i think thats a little much. they have a cheaper alternative which is in essence a hot plastic melted over your trim with a cf look thats about 70% real looking. probably not going that route though. i have a 2 month long dialogue with my dealer for the amg parts from the e55 presidential. still waiting. also did have 3 cf engine covers made, just waiting for delivery.

Hello guys.
I have a friend here in Finland, who can make CF stuff. Should i be a guinea-pig? if we have enough people who are interested, maybe i should think about it. Price is very very good, thats all i know. what do you think?

Thanks,
Ville

(sorry my bad english )

You can get it through me (my source is the same company that makes OE AMG CF trims). Or you can get Brabus or Kleemann CF trims.

Hello Harris how are you? But hey, same quality, half price. Kleemann or Brabus stamp doesnt make it any better.

Thanks,
Ville

Here is the titanium gray CF that I got from Harris for my CLK - If I remember right, it took about 45 minutes to remove it all by myself never having done it before
