Default Carbon Fiber interior (overlay)

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get an interior carbon fiber overlay kit for the RC 350 F Sport? I've been looking around for parts and Bulletproof has some for the RCF, but their prices are crazy expensive.

Default carbon fiber overlay

The part number is LSRC15A-RCF for 350RC or RCF (choose real carbon fiber) more details on - https://www.carid.com/2015-lexus-rc-...-57125792.html Price is $221.78. I installed center console. Just remember that it is real carbon fiber, but there is some extra thickness due to the clear finish and sticky backing. I tried to show it in the picture. The scuff plates were made for me as a prototype for a later more finished project. I will be selling these soon.

Where did you get the red and carbon fiber steering wheel tho? That looks so good!

Default carbon fiber steering wheel

I got it from DCTMS, It was a long wait because of the red and black perforated leather in the exact positions I wanted.

Was the carbon interior from Carid like a hard plastic material or was it kind of like a bendy sticker?

It is bendy but quite thick, but it does form over subtle curves. I will measure the thickness on Monday and get back to you. Also go to our "Vendor Marketplace and Classifieds" then "Club Lexus Member Classifieds" then "1Gen RC350/RCF Classifieds" then scroll to "Real carbon fiber RCF Console" entry dated 4/5/17. Good pictures of the complete set and good info.

We do custom Carbon fiber overlays that are Vacuum over laid to the actual part. Turns the part basically a real carbon fiber part! no stick on gimmicks or 3m adhesion tapes!

So is Carbon Fiber trims the preferred option over wood these days? Call me old school but I still prefer a classy dark wood over Carbon Fiber trims, but I must admit it looks beautiful in that RC pictured above. Very nice install

I think we have the exact kit SUVI was talking about. Bought it off a friend though who had a change of heart. Also did the CF shift **** as other person mentioned, glove box and steering wheel Y too. Looks sick!
