Wow! Katfish, your carbon fiber overlay really looks great. Brings your whole dash and interior into the present. A sort of a hi-tech racey look. I'm sure this will give Rebelyell something to give him inspiration. I also ran into a little dilemma when redoing the trim in my SE interior. I didn't care for the Walnut colored wood trim (I don't know to dark and dull looking). Since the car is K2 outside, I wanted a wood tone with some red in it, to compliment each other. I stumbled on some Cherry Oak colored HD 3M vinyl wood sheet used for the outside of woody PT Cruisers, and the Chrysler mini-vans of the 90's. Was a little pricey but worth the look. Made my own templates and carefully hand cut. Still the wood look but a little different. Take a look.    Thanks,   Al

That doesn't look as bad as I thought it would! It's actually very cool. It would probably save me some time and hassle to buy those.

Wow! Nice job Katfish! I like how the "grain" flows from the switch pod to the dash!

Can I borrow that picture?

Sure, have at it, you make nice products and I'm very happy with the carbon fiber overlays.
