Here is my homemade Carbon Fiber vinyl insert for my radio bezel:

I was done somewhat quick; it looks ok, could be better. I used cardboard as the backing and just laid some CF vinyl over it, then I used some double sided tape (all I had at the time) to hold it in place. Here are some pictures of it in the car:

It's not perfect so I'm definitely going to redo it one day, but for now it does what it's supposed to do http://www.socalsubies.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Add a bunch of switches that look important and it'll be perfect :mrgreen:

Might do that! Jk. I am thinking of relocating my SI Drive to where the center left vent used to be, but I'm not sure yet. Reason being is that I have real CF center console I want to install, but it literally just has the hole for the shifter to come through...

Decisions, decisions...

Might just have too. It could end up looking pretty damn cool too. Other issue is the ebrake... no hole in the new console for that either, I really don't know what to do there. Any ideas?
