Nice write-up! I installed the same black CF kit over my woodgrain. There are some spots where the woodgrain shows through. This doesn't seem to be a problem with your silver dash though. Luckily, Carson had the good sense to include some black vinyl 3M tape to cover up the spots. I had to take apart my center console and dash to make sure I got everything. (But that was kind of fun. )

I love how it looks!
