Carbon fiber trim?
What is everyones opinion on carbon fiber overlay over the wood pieces on the interior they are pretty scratched up and some of them are cracked. The gsf and isf are both 4 doors and have carbon fiber trim on the inside, my overall goal is to make my version of a "ls430 f sport"
I know the ls is normally a flagship luxery car bit those that have been following my build know I am putting a bunch of handling mods and go fast bits more performance orientated than aesthetic.
This is a 2015 isf interior
This is a trim kit that is from braga for the ls430 so my idea is anything that has woodtrim like in this picture gets carbon fiber treatment.

If the wood is messed up I think it would look cool. I have 5d carbon fiber wrapped on my trim on my GS and it looks like real carbon fiber. Its a little hard to work with but if you are removing the trim to wrap it may be easier.

I've removed the center wrap since.

I bought a massive roll for like around $20 shipped, it’s super cheap. I wrapped it myself, it’s not hard, I did it with the trim still on. I need to remove the center section to wrap everything properly. I have real CF mirror caps, steering wheel and trunk spoiler. The mirrors were too hard to wrap around curves with this material.
