Default CF Fsport center console

Ordered some silver metallic carbon fiber vinyl from Metro Restyling on eBay. It's a little bit lighter than the window switch or glove box cf but I am very happy with how it came out. Lexus should have done this straight from the factory.

Wow that looks amazing! Where did you get the job done or DIY? I live in Canada in Nova Scotia ... does anybody know some place that could do vinyl wrappings like this for the interior shift box!?

Thanks.

Rough cut the piece to the part by tracing it. Clean part free of grease and debris. Separate vinyl from backing, spray soap and water or windex to back of vinyl. I used windex it dries a little faster, to be able to position the vinyl. Then detail cut with razor knife and work it around and wrap. Used hair dryer to dry windex for adhesion and heat makes the vinyl more pliable. It took me 2 tries on the piece around the sport mode ****. Good luck.

Looks more durable than the factory finish. Nice work.

Looks good, do they have the same colour CF wrap to match the side door panels?
