GM doesnt make carbon fiber trim for our car. The G5s came with trim that looks like it though

I wrapped mine myself with the CF wrap at pep boys. Wrap it, use a lighter to melt the ends, and clear coat. Wait a couple hrs...bam...freshly done.





i know they r hard to see, and i'm sry. but u can get an idea. the only one i didn't do is the one around the headunit.
