I bought a carbon-fibre look dash of a dealer about a year ago, but it never really met my expectations. A real carbon fibre dash is WAY out of my spending league, so i thought i'd re-cover my existing one to my liking.

Here's how it turned out.

What do you think??

Excuse my feet - it was 34 degrees in the shade.

Yeah its carbon fibre vinyl. Specifically 3M Di-Noc Carbon Fibre Vinyl. Quite expensive but looks the dogs melons. You can get it off ebay >>Here<<

You can heat it up with a hairdryer and cover pretty much any surface even if its curved.
