Pretty sure you would be hard pressed to find it locally. Best bet would probably be nasioc theres a few vendors on there that sell cf interior parts.

word has it that the cf guru that does all the stuff for pbms lost 15 years worth of subaru moulds in one big warehouse fire not long ago!

good luck trying to find a carbon guy here in perth, if you do, let me know!

stick on immitation cf can be sourced locally very easily, shop in melville, its name right now escapes me, anyway, they do dash and door-trim stick ons, personally they look cheap as the cf weave looks digital in form and the high gloss finish makes it even look worse.

your best bet for real cf is a motorcycle parts shop, like v-twin, due to them wrapping cf muffler tubes and other parts im sure they can mould something up for you.

custom cf is very expensive. the actual finished cf is the cheap part, all the labour charges for fibreglass moulds take up a fair chunk of change. roughly it works out 75% mould 25% cf.

Spose a question would be the practicality of carbon fibre interior bits? Why not go another material, unless ofcorse you are racing, trying to make your car as light as possible and listen to doof doof (YO!) / watch the autometer gauges at the same time....
