Interest in full replacement carbon fiber interior trim?

I'm in talks with a producer of carbon fiber bits and I'm looking to have some full replacement interior trim kits made in gloss, 2x2 twill carbon fiber. This kit will utilize the factory OEM trim to guarantee perfect fitment and will consist of all the same pieces as the M Performance trim kit, except full done in gloss carbon instead of Alcantara/matte.

The look will be similar to the carbon trim currently available on the M3/4/6, Ferraris, AMG Benzes and many high-end cars. This is NOT going to be an overlay kit which you stick on. This will be real carbon fiber instead of wood or aluminum as in the factory trim.

The look will be a little something like this...



Who's interested? PM me for more info.

This looks absolutely stunning…my favorite interior combination! I especially like that it is sans Alcantara. Not sure I'm ready to have my new trim replaced quite yet and I would not feel comfortable doing it myself but I will be following this thread closely. Can't wait to see actual install pictures with commentary on the quality, fit and look.

I would be in as well, BUT I would like to see the bottom trim to be aluminum and not black. There is so much black on the dash the aluminum bar on the bottom would add a nice break to match the rest of the highlighted trim throughout the dash.

The pic was just an example of the style of carbon fiber.

I'm going to have the entire piece in carbon doing away with the "highlight finisher." But one has the option to do whatever they want, keeping your factory trim's highlight and just having the aluminum or wood in carbon.

If that is the case, count me in.
