I was wondering if anyone has gone with any carbon fiber interior parts. I saw a company that sells alot of interior carbon fiber parts and wanted to know what some opinions are about it. here is the link if you wanna check it out.

I personally think that most of the interior pieces are way too tacky. I do have plans for a CF headliner though, and I would like a CF armrest. But seriously, who needs a full interior made of carbon fiber?

Thats why I was posting to get peoples opinions about the parts they have.

ZOMG that stuff is expensive. I can only imagine what it would cost to do the whole interior.

way too expensive to think about it.

Im not saying to have a completely CF interior. Just what pieces people would consider doing or have. Also has anyone used this company or know anyone who has. I was thinking about doing the headliner and armrest also.

I want the door paneling, A-pillar's, privacy hatch cover, and headliner. But I gots no moneyz to be spending on that stuff.

Too expensive although I have considered the headliner since its hard to find a OEM headliner in good shape and I need one. Door panels have been on my mind too. But thats alot of money to dump into the interior.

Their stuff is nice. You can see a pic in my build thread of the headliner.

I also have their headliner, apillar for both sides. I also had them wrap the plastic around my traingle rear windows and the plastic on the hatch around the windoe.

So pretty much everything from the windows up. I think it should look good since I plan on doing a two tone color scheme on my car.

I forgot about the A-pillars...I would use them as well. Greengoblin: do you have pics of said CF quarter windows?

That makes sense since youre still in the build stages, and not the finishing stages. I thought maybe you would have taken fitment pictures just for show and then taken them all apart again.

I guess it is a highly used area that would be conducive to scratching. That something to think about.

way to expensive fo me=], but looks really nice when done right

personally im planning to get their door inserts and the a pillars as soon as i get the chance. Doing the whole door is a bit too much and headliner.. forget it.
