I see sport leather seats, pretty rare to find them on stock cars. For the interior the first thing I would do is wrap the wood trim. I did my beltline trim in 3m 1080 vinyl, brushed titanium, which is basically brushed aluminum but darker. The centre console was done with the same stuff but carbon fibre.

It's hard to capture the texture of it with a camera but you would be able to fool someone into thinking it's real if you're good enough. The flash also makes everything look much brighter than it is.

I LOVE that look that you did very clean. How difficult was it to get the pillars and trim pieces off? ...i was thinking of going with some 3m carbon fiber di-noc on the wood trim all around and accented with a black suede headliner

It's really time consuming because you have to take off the door panels, glovebox and knee bolster to reach the clips at the back of the trim. Haven't touched the pillars so I wouldn't know about that. di-noc is outdated BTW, 3m's current line is called scotchprint 1080. It's a little bit better in every way, so before you buy make sure it's actually that and not some old di-noc stock.

Look for a local distributor the 3m website, that would be your best bet. I found one that sells the stuff wholesale for much cheaper than any online place, though I did have to make up a business to buy from them. Also get some of this stuff: 3M Primer 94 Adhesive Promoter - 8 oz, I got if from a local guy that wraps stuff out of his garage. You have to apply it to all edges and concave parts of the piece you're wrapping with a q-tip before laying on the vinyl, it prevents the vinyl from lifting over time.

It'll make it a massive PITA to pull of the vinyl, I screwed up a couple of times and had to pick off pieces of vinyl because it holds too strongly. It cleans up easily with alcohol though, so no permanent residue.
