Default Carbon Fiber?

Has anyone done anything with carbon fiber inside, outside, or under the hood? I have done my heated seat switch plate but not sure how brave or how big I want to go next and do the dash around the radio and spedo in CF. Also thnking about the center concle cause it is starting to peel by the cup holder. I have been thinking about making a CF wheel cover but not sure how well that would feel while sliding my bass across it in a turn. Please leave ideas, pics l, and thoughts.

I don't have any pics right now but I will get some. I only did the heated seat switch plate. It was my first time and I did a ok job, I'll prob redo it tho. Was also thumbing about making the engine cover out of CF. And some fuse box covers too

How are you "making" this carbon fiber? You just using stickers or actually weaving, molding it, and bonding it?
I wouldn't think weaving though....lol...

Please see links for ideas: http://www.superchevy.com/features/0..._ss/index.html
