Mine has the Carbon Fiber trim pieces, and full Black leather. I tamed glare, reflections and heat with a light 70% ceramic nano-coated 2-ply tint film on all glass. I'm lovin it!

Did the same thing on my previous 4S. I like it. I think the carbon really upgrades the interior.

Ah, makes sense. Not actual CF.

You should come to the LSRPCA north side GTG tomorrow morning. 8:30, at Hubble & Hudson Kitchen. It's there the 4th Saturday of every month.

I like the glossy CF look. Can you let me know where you got the wrap?

Ah, thanks. I mistook this thread for another one where the OP used a wrap.

I did the same...got rid of my aluminum trim for a CF swap out from DB Carbon. They took my cores too which saved me some $$$. Now just need to do my doors trim to make things even out. Good job.
