How-To Tuesday: Carbon Fiber Foiling Your Interior

By -

carbon fiber interior

When I think of carbon fiber, I think of a material that’s lightweight, strong, and expensive. But apparently I was wrong about at least one of those, as today’s How-To Tuesday mod — wrapping the interior of your Lexus IS in carbon fiber foil — will cost you less than a $100 bucks.

That’s according to an article over in our “How-To” section (and the corresponding video below), which puts the cost of such an attractive mod at the very reasonable price range between $20 and $100, which is a whole lot better than the pro cost that ranges between $100 and $300.

Equally exciting to a relatively cheap mod is the fact that this is a relatively easy one, which only requires a few tools and minimal materials.

The article explains exactly what materials you’ll need, and then teaches you, in step-by-step fashion, how to apply those materials to your Lexus IS 250 or 350, between the 2004 and 2014 model years. But worry not, if you’re not rocking such a ride, the information in the article should still be helpful, perhaps just with an added sense of DIY satisfaction.

So head on over to the article, get started carbon fiber foiling, and pretty soon you’ll be sitting pretty in a beautiful new interior. Of course, unless you post pics on the forum, it didn’t happen.
