I'd like to see an updated thread on where to find these overlays. Anyone have some links to decent CF overlays!?

I'm definitely loving the piano black overlay... If you can't find it though, you could always paint the trim... It's been done before.

Is there any particular reason why one might want the weave slanting to the left vs. right? I can't decide which way it should go. My initial thought is to the right, but then have the passenger side trim slant to the left so it's a mirror image. Thoughts anyone?

PS: Yes, I'm OCD.

Since I have the silver interior, I wasn't really feeling how the CF overlays look since the "cups" on the window switches don't come out like the guys with the wood, so I decided to go the paint route. I dropped all my pieces off at the body shop and $20 later viola!!

I have an extra center console, ashtray and switch panels. I might have to try it. Now I just need to find a shop to paint it

Yes it is just plastic, simulated wood.
