Thumbs up *********** MOTORSPORT | CARBON FIBER FABRIC wrapped TRIM***NOT A BMW***

Hey guys I just finished this. I know, I know, it's NOT a BMW but at least you can see the other colors
of Carbon Fiber vinyl fabric available. I also think this would look really good on the BMW trim.

Here are some pictures of the "Light Charcoal" Carbon Fiber vinyl fabric on a Ford Truck!!! It seems the
vinyl fabric has a slight hint of blue hue to it, but mostly it's the lighting and the camera. The last picture even looks silver.

ENJOY!!!

LOL it does look a little Mazda-ish but it's a Ford 4x4 truck. Well sorry that's the best it's going to look on a Ford, it prolly looks better on a BMW.

Looks Cool but why did you bother with a Ford Explorer?

yeah, but that only applies in "form follows function" situations (i.e. going with a CF hood or hatch b/c it weighs significantly less than its OEM counterpart). CF interior trim pieces and panels on the other hand weigh marginally less - if any less at all - than the OEM trim pieces and panels do. in other words, they're for looks, not weight savings. that being said - unless you're specifically going for the wet carbon fiber look, the CF fabric (not vinyl) looks just as good as dry carbon fiber and is far less expensive than real CF. not only that, but you can wrap just about anything in it, which means just about any panel or piece of trim can look like dry CF (whereas only a limited selection of panels and trim pieces are replicated in CF by aftermarket companies).
