Hey all,

I'm looking to remove the interior wooden trim from my CL and send it off to get dipped.

I have taken a look at the instructions and it doesn't seem too hard.

I'm just wondering if anyone on here has actually done it to their cars. My car has black leather everywhere so, I originally thought of silver CF as a contrast but seeing some cars in the dealership with black interiors the dark CF effect also suits really well.

I'm looking at Wicked Coatings, however, if there are any other companies to recommend I'd be interested to hear.

Seems wrong getting rid of real wood for fake CF but it will look a bit more modern/fresh and be a better finish than getting someone to wrap it with 3M Di-Noc.
 
I,ve seen some of the work produced by Wicked Coating and it looked good quality. Check out the threads from member CB1965, he's done a lot of work on his car including some nice interior dipped trim.

Yes I saw his car at the MSL GTG, very impressed with the Quality.
 
Also found this other company in Kent - Hydro Graffix.

They have a CLS55 engine cover in their gallery done in red CF effect and the pipes in the normal dark CF.

I'm thinking of getting mine done in their Yellow CF and black CF on the pipes and interior. Also looking to get the rear plastic trim above the exhausts done in black CF to finish it off. Need to ask a bodyshop on how easy it will be to remove but would look good done I think.
 
There's a company very near to me that does this; I'm due to get a few bits done to my RR Sport so depending on how quick you need it doing I can be the guinea pig...
 
I wrapped mine instead.
I've had my diffuser hydro dipped though and they did a cracking job.
