Just wanted to see some dash kit pics. Im debating which would go better with my silver celi...silver carbon fiber or brushed aluminum?

Glad you posted smkr3w, I have a question. On the edges where you folded the material over, how'd you go about that exactly to get it smooth? Did you do like a star cut on the material to get it to fold better?

I only star cut on the clock and hazard light holes.. the rest I used a heat gun and pulled taught like i was trying to wrap the back of it as well and then trimmed leaving about a 1/4-1/2 inch excess all around. Patience and a heat gun really is the key to a nice edge.

also and the more square corners like around the radio/climate i used a single cut (45 degrees or so) close to the corner.

however on the shifter surround after i took these pics the corner curve nearest the dash on the pass side started to lift a little do to the arizona heat so i trimmed an even inch around the base making somewhat parallel lines
