Carbon Fiber Dash and Door Trim

Always wanted the carbon dash trim pieces but didn't like the price. Decided to try a 5D carbon vinyl wrap from eBay. Messed it up a couple of times, but at the end it looks decent to me. I used a plastic prier, harbor freight heat gun and a pocket knife.

Vinyl wrap was $7.99. Let's see how long shall it last.

Looks like a top job mate I did the same thing with my car.

I did mine in 2010 and it still looks brand new

Yes, and I suggest doing those first for practice purposes ! The long dash piece it's more complicated because of the edges.
