I am trying to decide wether to get carbon fiber trim or to paint all of the pieces inside my truck. What does everyone think?

I personally like painted interiors but go for what you like.

Carbon fiber is usually expensive, unless you get the stick on sheets. I have a mix of both cf and paint. I like the carbon fiber look, but it is hard to get the sheet on the curved surfaces (it takes a lot of heat). Paint is fairly easy and you can probably do the complete interior for under $25.

Hey Roadrunner do you have a pic of your interior?

Not at the moment, but I think I am going to take some shots of it tomorrow. Most of the carbon fiber stuff I have is exterior. Door handles, winshield wipers, etc.
