Arrow Carbon Fiber Interior?
Alright so here's the deal.. I'm looking to make my interior look nice so that it looks like I put some work into it. I will be doing this by converting my stock SS/SC Interior to a Carbon Fiber Interior. I am interested in the whole package including the door panels. (Also even a CF Shifter?) Does anyone know of any good and/or bad products? Let me know what you all have heard please!

So far I got a quote at $300 for the CF Interior Including the Door Panels (From GM). I'd rather not pay $300 if I can get the same thing (Or better) at a cheaper price. Help me out =) It would be greatly appreciated.

The fabric alone is at least 20-30 bucks a yard. Figure maybe 5 yards to do the whole thing then clear coat if you don't want to fade. It will look stupid but if that's what you want to do then do it. If you want it to look nice do everything in alcantara suede but it's more expensive.

How much was it to do the interior parts? How quick are they when it comes to their work? I may get in contact with them for a few things.
