added some carbon fiber
#16
Update - I removed the added carbon fiber trim pieces on the console. My overly **** eyes didn't't like the slightly non OEM look. The seat heater switches were not flush and the upper edge of the shifter trim pieces were slightly raised.
The carbon pieces from DB Carbon are excellent quality but stick-ons actually do look like stick-ons.

Decided to try re-installing the DB Carbon console trim pieces on my 992GTS. My reason for removing them was that they were slightly raised at the edges and didn't look like a stock fit. This time, I added some additional 3M double sided tape to the edges to eliminate the problem. I'm now happy with the look.

Where did you get the trim pieces?
Also, did you do the door trims?

I would have gotten carbon fiber trim all wherever possible if it were not matte-I really like the shiny carbon fiber trim in the 991.2.
Stick ons would bother me regardless of how it looked. I like real.

DBCarbon.....No have not done doors yet...the require removal of doors and I think a bit more work to remove the aluminum trim to replace them with the CF ones. Not fully plug in play.
Yes understand how you feel but unfortunately NOONE makes any trim pieces for center console outside of the rear cup holder piece. Rest of that trim is all in piano black. . So CF overlay is the only option for now if you want to deal with those areas I guess.
