    I think it would hold up great. They use it on car hoods and it holds up very well on them. I am planning on using it on mine.

    Looks good! I would take the instrument panel outside and look at it in the sun and make sure you want wrap on that. First, the carbon fiber pattern is a little hard to look at for hours at a time. Also, you might find the glare on the gloss might be a little much. Just make sure you like it before you go through all the work to put it on the panel.

    I did instrument and overhead panels in carbon fiber vinyl from yipes stripes. Has a flat finish. Holding up well a year later.

    I'm looking for a closer match to CubCrafters carbon fiber in a vinyl wrap. I want to continue the carbon fiber trim look on the back side of the cockpit door in a pattern like the example below.

    I have the
    VVIVID Epoxy High Gloss Black Carbon Vinyl Automotive Wrap, but it is not a particularly good match. The pattern is about 1/2 the size of the CubCrafters and there is no gold color. Does anyone have a better choice?
