Driver Posted March 9, 2008 Posted March 9, 2008 So, I've got the carbon fiber dash shell, what's a good way to keep the sun from bouncing off of it? I've seen a felt-like covering on numerous professional cars, where can I find this? Many Thanks Quote
LateApexEM2 Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 I know some people cover them with ultrasuede or alcantara, check online or at fabric shops. Its the same suede like stuff on some race steering wheels and seats for luxury cars Quote

Driver Posted March 28, 2008 Author Posted March 28, 2008 So wait, it's just some of that and some spray adhesive? That's simpler than I thought. Quote
b_tone Posted April 4, 2008 Posted April 4, 2008 I don't know how much this flocking stuff costs or performs, but I have used thick black felt (about $3.50/yd @ any fabric store) and 3M adhesive with fantastic results on several cars. Quote
Mac11 Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Flat black spray paint works pretty well. flat black is the only color of paint that should be allowed on any car. ever. Quote
