So I was watching Fast and Furious all weekend and decided that I need to add some flair to the 335’s interior.
OK seriously, I didn’t like the dark brown wood interior trim, so I glued carbon fiber cloth over it. The pictures are not all of the same pieces because not all my pictures turned out, but you get the idea.
I didn’t take any pictures of my interior for the “before” picture, but I borrowed this one.
This is my interior trim removed from the car, cleaned and ready for the adhesive
Then I cut the Carbon Fiber fabric to the size I needed.
Here are the door inserts ready to be sprayed.
Then with glue (3M) on it, a few layers of it
Then I carefully layed the faric over the sprayed piece
Next I cut it to size and sprayed the bottom of the trim with the glue
The whole “matte CF” trend that’s starting is fucking awesome. However, are you worried about shit snagging the weave at all? I thought that they used a little bit of resin when they did it?
I tried to have my bike frame done in “matte” cf… when i inquired about it, i was told they would just take the standard CF finish, and hit it up with 600 grit wet sand paper…
I saw the same technique done on some EAS interior CF parts for the bmw cars… seemed to come out find in pictures, but i didnt see it in person…
I have seen some seibon “dry” cf CSL trunks, which look damn good, but not 3k good
I did not put any resin on there. It seems pretty durable, and I bought enough to do my car a few times over, so if I ever fuck it up, or Jeller pukes on it I can re do it. :lol:
Those inquiring about the cost, all in I was under $100 and like I said I have plenty left over.
Sorry I am slow, it is fairly thin, and very durable. It was kinda a PITA to do on my car, I spent quite a while taking things apart (like the ashtray cover) and taping off the clips behind the trim, cleaning glue off my hands every 2 min. All in I spent about 10 hours on it or so. There were no real fitment issues though, however I planned out for clearances. The hardest part is wrapping the ends and making it look nice, like the ashtray cover corners.
