Got my wheels this week and now working on the inside, using CF to make the inside panels and got some nice black leather from ebay for the dash.I think I will combine the carbon with the leather..

looks nice. where did you get the carbon / carbon effect sheet from?

It's real carbon, I laminated it using epoxy, only 1 layer for the looks.
Then I glued it to 1,5 mm Alu.

I got it from a good friend, he has a company that makes carbon cones for the car and aircraft industry.

It isn't that easy working with real carbon fibre, first I wanted to do the hole interior of the car.But not having the right tools, I think I do a combo with leather(alot cheaper)
