2012 carbon fiber dash kit

What I am really looking for is the carbon fiber molded kit that goes around the stereo. I dont want adhesive that i just stick on the fake wood. I want to replace the fake wood with carbon fiber molded kit. Any ideas?

I'll have this one available as soon as another one I am having hydro'd is done. Might be a few weeks. This one has a few small blemishes from where he tried to "fix" the clearcoat. You can barly see them but I see them and they bothered the perfectionist in me so he is re-doing another panel but if you are interested in this one, send me a PM and we can "talk"

I took off my original fake wood tone one and had it hydrographiced (dipped) at a local print shop. It is the same process that puts on the fake wood grain. Look up "hydrographic" in your yellow pages for somewhere close to you. There are many different patterns you can pick.

the two things on the lower left & right are snap fit.. a small slot in the bottom edge, provides screwdriver access to pop out..

behind those are two screws that hold the bottom of the dash shell..
remove those and the shell swings out from the bottom..

then the coin holder/upfitter assembly are snap fit in the center hole.

I know some guys like the fake burl but....

First thing my wife said when she saw the wood grain was in my last truck was what where they thinking? First thing she said when she got in the new truck was seriously? My fix is planned next week.

Yours looks awesome.
