Since it's not going to male your truck any lighter I'm guessing you want this for aesthetics. Got an airbrush, or friend with one? Nice effect and easy to achieve, don't really need to dump the cash on the HoK paint, can find similar colors in the Auto Air line.

Jim, you may have to try Phoenix Imaging for that kind of effect. They do great work, it's a dip part, then clear paint process. They can do almost any parts, but the price is high. It used to be $0.56 per square inch, I had my 98 arm rests, radio bezel, and console pieces done, for over $300. Good luck,

There are adhesive-backed vinyl sheets that look like carbon fiber -- thats probably the cheapest solution.
$5 for a 15"x12" section:

Vinyl can be heated (using a heat gun or a hair dryer) to allow it to wrap around more complex (curved) surfaces.

fiberwerx will manufacture you real carbon fiber pieces. a little pricey, but it won't peel off in a few years....

sorry i didn't get back to you..i tried to look for the site that i had bought my things from but seems it doesn't exist anymore.
I'll keep on searching b/c i to want/need to make some c/f parts for my truck

I spoke to APSIS and they should be able to make the pieces for me.

Thanks everyone
