Default my new Carbon Fiber hood and interior

decided I needed some carbon fiber so I had Vette Essentials redo my interior and hood, the interior is silver and carbon fiber leather, the hood is made by Motor City Mold-I am very pleased with how my vette turned out:)

I do DE events so I wanted a better pass for my belts, but also wanted to keep the OEM look-and I missed my sport seats from the coupe:( SO...went with the VE interior and I love it! Seats are much more comfortable

Looks Great!!! :hurray:
Quick?...Are the steering wheel, door pulls, shift boot, etc. overlays (wrapped on by tape etc) or actual swap outs? Just curious?
Thanks...either way, it looks good and the hood is definitely a must have.

thank you for the nice compliments guys:)

the door pulls, center console, wheel, shift **** are real leather sewn by Vette Essentials over top of the core pieces, the seats are a leather cover

the shift boot is a replacement

I love the pockets behind my seats now, great for storing things-and I especially like the waist pouches velcro-d in front of each seat, I use them to store things now, can see me using those a lot next summer for walking around car events

Looks great, can you take some closer pics of the "carbon fiber leather"? What is that?
