carbon fiber interior: ac vents on dash
i once test drove a used MP3 and i think the previous owner went a little too nuts with the carbon fiber / chrome trim. he or she had a dg motorsports ram air hood, cf sills, cf tail lights, cf arm rest, etc...you get the idea.
but what i thought was a nice accent was the cf over the ac vents. it would nicely complement the stock radio plate / bezel. i'll try to post pics that i saved of the car that i test drove (who knows, it might be your old MP3). ive since purchased an '03 ES and for the life of me cannot find who sells the cf ac vents. i dont care if its not real cf because quite frankly, neither is the radio bezel. if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be sweet! thanks! -meGrimlock |
You might be able to cover the vents with carbon fiber vinyl...

those look like the cabonfiber vinyl. They sell them precut on ebay. Or you could by a sheet of it and cut them out yourself

Actually if you are looking for carbon fiber stuff for your protege just go to www.corksport.com its kind of expensive but they got nice stuff like carbon fiber ground effects! Yes, real carbon fiber sideskirts and other.

CF makes me sick. The reason CF was so popular was because REAL race cars used it to REPLACE heavier parts. Now it seems every ricer with $100 is just adding layer of layer of CF sticky stuff to their cars....defeating the purpose of the lightweight CF....
These are just my opinions. |

The other faux carbon-fiber accent is in the Flyin' M logo on the steering wheel... :)

true, but i hardly consider that even passable as fake carbon fiber...it looks like a honeycomb pattern more than a weave.
