is titanium cf wrap cheesy?

spiike32 · 10-19-2010, 06:48 PM

So I have a yard of ti silver cf fabric to wrap my trim, but quite hesitant.
Couple people I know have said it is ricey or cheesy. what is the general consensus on this? Should I do black instead? I have black interior, sport, and idrive.

Cheesy. Unless the element carbon now comes in silver.

Who pays for your car? You or a bunch of people you'll most likely never meet? Do whatever YOU like. I happen to think it'll look good with the black interior. Some could say it's ricey or cheesy to use carbon fiber wrap because IT'S NOT REAL CARBON...

any cf wrap is cheesy

i did titanium cf wrap, i really like it. the black doesnt stand out enough imo.
and no matter what way u look at it, its carbon material, its not real!!! so just cus its titanium rather than black doesnt make it cheesy, cus if u look at it that way, both are cheesy.
in the end do what you like.

I think the matte finish titanium cf wrap looks much better than the super glossy replacement trim pieces that you can buy.

depends on your interior
