hey bat, i was looking to get some interior parts wrapped in carbon fiber, and i think i really like this new stuff you found. do you have any cut outs for interior parts that aren't the aluminum trims? im planning on doing small accents like the window switch bezel, center cupholder section, and possibly the rear center console divider piece. honestly, i HATE plastic, so those are the three places the plastic stands out most

Hey B@t, I noticed over time, the glossiness of the 3M tend to fade away to rather pale and dull, do you have any resolution to that? I have them on my mirrors and I'm thinking to remove them
