it's not worth looking into and if you have no experience with fiberglass then i wouldnt attempt it based off of a guide. and as far as doing your own carbon fiber....

so, what about the simulated vinyl stuff??? Is it crap or does it actually look decent enough to do? Does heat make it peel easy or become unstuck??

it depends, where do you plan on putting the vinyl on? I have some pieces on my dash covered with it and it's been good going on 2 years.

I went with a real cf dash kit. I love it. I get alot of compliments on it and the quality is great. Got mine from www.nycdashes.com for about 180 or so.
