You want it? No amount of lipstick and mascara will make me want to keep this truck. There's no mending this relationship now. LOL

At the risk of getting in deeper trouble, I would say yes, but I know how much work you have put into it. Most likely way out of my price range. But it does look GOOD!

The insert panel is DONE!! Just have to do some trimming and remove the tape, and it's ready to reinstall. Working on the bottom carpet piece now... this one will be a bit trickier... that sum-bitch is glued on GOOD! Not sure how I'm going to get the glue off yet...

It's carbon fiber. My resin went bad, so, it's just sprayed with clear coat.

That looks good. That's what I thought it was. I have a body part made with the same stuff.

Why all the work to make the CF parts for a truck that you hate and just want gone?

Have you ever tried painting carpet?

It took less than 20 minutes to wrap that part, and it looks 100000 times better than crunchy painted carpet, that would fade back to brown in 2 weeks anyway.
