I think that looks great.
Years ago I bought a bunch of that wrap and tried to do some pieces on my car... Very impressed with how cleanly the lines around the clock turned out- how did you do that?

Looks good man! I've been toying with doing my cluster and center bezel on my 3rd Gen too!
Did this to my 05 Taco a couple of years ago.....

Anything is better than the cheesy wood grain.

i did the same thing to mine but also did the gauge bezzle, where the key goes and the shifter area. Im just about to redo mine but with a silver carbon fiber wrap. I really like the way it wooks just looking for something a little lighter thats why im going with the silver

I hate my wood grain. The carbon fiber looks awesome. How did you do it? Hydro dipping?

Honestly I think it looks silly. Like a rice rocket, stock interior is fine. But thats just me.
You asked 
Nice clean job on the install though.

I really do like it. Super clean, and the carbon pattern is just hard to beat.

Sorry to go Off Topic, but this is why I love this forum.
Voices his opinion in a respectful way, AND COMPLIMENTS THE INSTALL EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT FOR HIM!
Anywhere else you'd have people either telling him how stupid it looked and to take it off, or how dumb he was for putting it on in the first place.
Hat's off to the members of T4R. Yeah, we can be douches, like with that one kid that deserved it, but we've got eachothers backs.

I've been going back and forth on whether or not I like it or not and this makes me think I do. Looks clean, are you doing anywhere else on the interior trim?
