Does anybody know where I can buy carbon fiber overlay kits for E Bodies? This would be similar to the woodgrain kits that are all over the place in Moparland.

Thanks!

Weren't made for them. You might try one of the import car decal places to make them for you.

WAJ, They are available as I have them on mine. It is just a decal and only simulates the look of carbon fiber. They are die cut and have 2 extra round cut marks for some other option that my panel doesn't have. Although not real obvious you can see the outline if you look closely. The decals look okay but not as nice as I'd hoped. If you want I will try to post a picture of mine.

Here is the place I got them from -

Mike is a great guy and easy to work with. You can also get the decals for the door inserts, not sure about the console. Mike ran a group rate deal here on Moparts awhile back on gauge cluster restoration. I had mine done, custom colors, and they turned out nice. Good luck on your project.....Ed

Thanks for the kind words Ed, here's a pic of your cluster I took before we shipped.
