Carbon Fiber Interior Trim? Where can I get it?
I am looking for Carbon Fiber interior trim to replace ALL the wood inside the E55. It obviously has to be top notch quality to be put inside the E55. None of that tack-on/paste-over crap. either wrapped OEM pieces with real CF or full CF replacements. I have to guess that there are no console door replacements right? It must be a difficult piece to make or even overlay. I am talking about the piece below. If I were to replace all the trim piece I would be better off just painting that sliding door to like a jet black right?
Who makes the trim replacements? Anyone know how much? I just want to give it a sportier edge although I do like the wood a lot. Some people will think this is "ricey" but I think it will look awesome when done right. Or maybe even a Brushed Aluminum replacement, that would be really sick... my 04 M3 Vert had it and its one of my favorite trims on any car.

I have the factory AMG CF kit in my Presiden't edition. (1 of 7) The dealer can get it with a VIN for $12K for the entire kit. I have read MP is going to make CF for the E series but that was a while ago. C2 Design in FL has done 1 off kits Again you are going to pay $200-$800 per peice. $5K for the entire kit will be in the ball park. http://www.c2dusa.com/

That $12,000 price is crazy but I'll look into C2... I have to imagine all this is OEM overlayed stuff... think I might be better off going to a local guy I know that overlays? Thanks a lot man appreciate that.

Another source would be Steve (MBenzNL). He can probably get you the AMG CF kit for a lot less than 12K
MP Design no longer imports the black CF kit for W211 to the USA. Don't know the exact reason why though.

Talk to Chris @ C2Designs.. He is a good guy and I deal with him alot..
Tell him Victor sent you.. He'll take good care of you.. He's already done a few kits for people.. and the prices are reasonable.
