CF Wrapping Interior Question?

So I'm thinking of wrapping my interior in CF. Right now ive got the aluminum silver interior trim however I bought the car used and it has got small chips in it (width and depth <1mm).

If i wrap, will it still look okay? I was going to sand it all down as much as possible to make it smooth. I don't want the CF to dimple into the existing trim.

Also does anyone know where I can buy fluro red/orange lining for the interior? using for lining under the trim etc.

Cheers

if you were closer i'd trade your my CF wrap interior i paid to have it done.

you won't be able to tell, i'd suggest not sanding them when you take the center console off make sure you take your time to take the ash tray apart so you wrap under the decoration piece.

I wouldn't sand down anything. It should be okay depending on the size, but I suggest using something to fill the holes rather than sanding down your entire trim (think bondo type thing)

I got 2 yards when I did mine. I think it was about 55"x72" size. This was for an E90. Had a bit left over. Figured, better get more and not worry about trying to fit everything. Also, make it easier to pattern match.
