Title: Carbon fibre trim ???
Post by: rob249 on 10 May 2011, 10:49

Does anyone have the carbon fibre dash trim on their golf mk4?

Found on ebay for £15 looks quite nice, at the moment i have some sort of shiny silvery trim.

Have also seen a satin silver trim to, looks ok, but if anyone has any pics of their dash trim be nice to have a look befre i bought one

cheers

don't buy the kit,i did and it looks ok but the bit round heater controls still shows some wood,i ended up ripping it all off and doing it all myself with 3m stuff looks much better,just take your time,get a hairdryer and some sharp stanley blades

If it's not real carbon fibre, then it's just chavvy. A bit like fake gold.
