Default new member and another carbon fiber wrap completed!

Figure I'll create another thread so the other one doesn't get cluttered. First off, I am a new owner to the Lexus brand. I am located in Dallas, TX. I sold my 2006 TSX and picked up a 2006 IS350 with Nav. It's SGM with black interior and full gfx kit. Sorry no pictures at the moment

I'll take some when the car is nice and clean. But to the point, my 2nd mod to my car was to replace the wood trim! I had to get rid of it. Once I saw the thread over at e90post, I had to do it. Overall, I am very happy with the end results. For $35 shipped per yard, this was the best $35 I've spend and the best mod for the money!! It took me 1.5 days but I took my time since I did not want to start over

The center console and the driver panel was the hardest part due to all the windows I had to cut out and trim. Feel free to PM if you have any questions.

Coming from Acurazine, I hope this forum stays very active and hopefully meet some local people in DFW

That looks very nice. Great job. Now you need the CF F-Sport shifter from Sewell to complete the look. Mod #3

I think if he just wrap his chrome part to CF would be nicer.
