Default carbon fiber parts/ hard dash board cover?

hi everyone, was wondering where i could find carbon fiber parts for my 2005 tc. im looking for something with very good fitment/quality and of course good price ! the thing i REALLY want is a cover for my dash board. i really dont want to buy those ugly cloth kind, but my parents are forcing me to put SOMETHING to protect it.. so i want something that looks oem, and why not CF? even if its not cf, anyone know of a place i can get a nice dash board cover?

so if you guys can give me some imput it would be greatly appreciated!

I have had my tC for nearly 4 years in the AZ sun without a dashboard cover and I haven't had any problems. I think the issue with a CF dash cover would be the glare... making it hard to drive on sunny days.

thats a good idea. sun shades are a pain.. i have one and ended up throwing it away. too damn lazy to put it on and off. so does like know one have a cover on their dash?
