I have link to ebay but not a diy link, I just use a flat head and pop both silver trim on each side and slowly pop the center console out. Once center console is out there will be 2 wire plug that you have to disconnect, it's pretty straight forward and don't hesitate to use some force when yanking it off lol

Here's ebay link
5D Top Grade Shinny Gloss Glossy Black 24" x 60" Carbon Fiber Vinyl Wrap Sticker | eBay

Fast shipper and usa seller, took only couple days for it to arrive at parcel pick up for me.

Okay sounds good. Thx bro! I will update when I'm done with this

Did you ever install that? I'm curious how it went for you?

I bought some cheap flat CF vinyl from Autozone and did everything in a few hours. Make sure the surface area is clean and have a heat gun/hair dryer handy. It helps the vinyl mold to the trim pieces. I don't have pictures of it right now but I personally think it looks very good. Post pics if you end up wrapping your interior! Believe me, it'll be worth the work and you'll be absolutely satisfied once you do it!

With that being said, I miss my car

She's in storage until August 2016.

Have you had issues with it not sticking well?

I have the older 3M 1080 carbon fiber and wanted the gloss look. I bought some 4d/5d stuff off Aliexpress and have tested a bit out on the shift ****, but I have my doubts about it working as well as the 3M stuff and really don't want to remove the 3M if the new stuff will be worse.
