GI: Carbon fiber wrapped Trim pieces

I'm not done yet but I hope to by Monday of next week with the Epoxy resin setting and polyurethane outer coating. Here is the shifter surround piece it still needs a sanding, extra coat of epoxy and polyurethane cover coat but it looks pretty decent now:



Hopefully interest is high and I can get a trade going on all the trim pieces for +$120 on my end. If that pans out I will do another in Real CF for sale for a manual and a Silver texalium one after that. Since the task is labor intensive I will most likely stop after that. I will do a write up on the next do round.

sweetness! I would be interested in getting rid of the full woodgrain kit in place of some CF. Trades for woodgrain + cash?? If not I have another shifter trim and window switch covers if you want to make me the guienna pig.

I am doing all the door switches and the shift bezel basically all the parts that are wood grain on the GLE Model. I could do more but I like the piece to look like they belong and not over do the CF.

when you say your going to do a real CF on for manual, do you mean a purely CF one with no plastic underneath? Also have you ever worked with the Silver texalium? bc its a *****

I mean that the CF is real not a "CF simulated wrap" or graphite texalium. There will still be plastic underneath. As far as working with texalium working with CF is a ***** and I expect texalium will not be any better. However, I have learned some tricks of the trade that will be useful in my experience.
