Waste of money, just paint your interior it'll look much better. Those stickers bubble, stretch, and fade.

if you have time, try a pass a carbon fiber wrapping. Get some test pieces and try it. There are people here that may be able to do it for you, I know bluecav doesn't have his site anymore, maybe Josh can do it PM him. I haven't seen a how-to on the forum but there is a how-to on a Celica forum I found. Its for wrapping exterior pieces but it is the same basic premise. If you are afraid of messing something up just get some junk pieces to use as a test. Take a look and see what you think. it is always an option if you want to hold off and save up some money. It will be more than a sticker but you'll be happier with the results in the long run.

here are some prices on carbon fiber cloth. Ranging from heavy duty stuff for building boats and parts to a light cloth. I'm not an expert on the grades and which to suggest so someone else needs to chime in here. But just lending a hand. Hope it helps.

this may be a little late to chime in... but that stuff is bull@!#$... i tried it right after i got my license. it looked so cool (IMO)... then i realized it only has 3 pieces to cover the whole dash... you end up with a line down both sides, and one or two across the radio and vents... it was aweful... ill see if i even bothered to save the pictures and post up if i find them... i painted mine and i am so much happier with the paint... it took about 5 hours total including, removal, sand, prime, paint, clear, and install. well worth it.

i know summit racing at one time carried this, either the whole bezel was cf, or it was a insert panel that snapped on, either way it looked very very good. www.summitracing.com
