Xpel kit for interior carbon fiber. Big improvement!

SOCALREBELX · Mar 20, 2022

I like the carbon fiber but always wished it looked better. Xpel makes a kit that includes everything except the steering wheel piece. The shop I used had no issue making one. Of note, the Xpel kit piece for the drink holder cover is too small by about a 1/4 inch. My shop corrected and provided that feedback to Xpel. The Xpel stealth also works and is nearly invisible if you want to keep it flat looking. I chose gloss and I'm very happy with the result!
Edit: Added two before pics.

Not sure why it looks like that but you had me worried I missed so I had to double check. All good.

Damn that does look great!! I think I'll be doing that... Shit now I need Xpel stealth exterior, Xpel ceramic tint windows & Xpel interior. This is gonna get a lot more expensive than I was planning

Do you know the name of the Xpel product they used for that?

Not specifically but any Xpel installer should be able to find the kit.

Makes sense, did you get any other items in your interior done besides the carbon fiber? Not necessarily glossy but any other expel protection?

Now if someone would make something nice to cover the Alcantara on the steering wheel.

Only the carbon fiber so far. Considering some areas around the door etc where my work boots keep hitting.

Looks real good!

That looks great. I purchased a couple of their pre-cut kits for my TRX a few months back. Holding up very well. If anyone is interested in the kits, you will notice "Ultimate Plus" and a "Stealth" option. The Ultimate Plus is a clear film. The Stealth will create a matte finish to any painted surface. Link to the kits below.

Did your kit have the steering wheel piece and was the drink holder cover the correct size?
I tested both the matte and the gloss. The gloss was invisible on the stock finish. I learned they make a smoked film for the headlights too. but I went with gloss.

I ended up selling the interior kit here lol. I don't think it has the steering wheel piece. It's not shown on the site.

This would be great contrast to those who do a stealth PPF exterior.
