Interior CF Wrap- Beige Interior

Hey guys,

I currently have a crack in my wood dash. It is bad! I would have to replace the largest dash piece. I thought instead, maybe I would wrap the wood in something cool, like CF.
Does anyone have a CF Dash with a beige interior? I would like to see a few pics if anyone has it? Other ideas are welcome too.

Thanks guys!

Great pics! Thank you! I was thinking about doing a gloss or matte black possibly too. Is taking the dash apart a MUST for this?

Wow. That is so generous of you. I'm not gonna lie, the thing that really scares me is taking apart the dash. If you could help me one day that would be amazing!! Thank you!

First things first, I need to find some pics of black or CF dash's in a beige interior to ensure I like the look of it. Then get the supplies

It's not the dash, it's the center console that is a PITA lol.

That does look good!

Only thing is, you have a 2 tone interior, I have a straight beige. That is slightly different but I really wanna see what it looks like in all beige.

How do I need to prep the dash before I wrap it? I am using pressure adhesive vinyl wrap. No sticky spray or anything like that.

I am using the 3M di-noc cf to do mine, almost finished, but for that I just cleaned the parts I wanted to wrap with some isopropyl alcohol real well then applied the 3M primer 94 so far it has came out great.

Did you remove your dash to do it?

Is the primer a must?

yes, you have to remove the trim, the dash is easy, the lower center console is a bitch. You don't have to prime it

you can get away with not priming the wood trim pieces, smaller more complex shapes you will want to prime

3M Primer 94? That's what I want right? Home Depot will have this?

Will it come off when I want it to?
