Default scion tc interior dash vinyl ideas

Im going to be buying a vinyl kit for my scion tc dash/interior, but im having a hard time deciding between matte black or carbon fiber?

I was leaning toward CF, but would would carbon fiber look ricer? Because it wont be actual CF, just a vinyl that looks like it. Btw my car flint mica, so im only going to be choosing a dark color.

Here is the link to the website im going to be buying from
http://www.rvinyl.com/dashkits/scion/tC_2005.htm

So what would you guys choose? Matte black or carbon fiber?

I really want to see what the matte black will look like, because I have a bsp and wanted to do either black/matteblack/ or white interior.

CF and black are both cool. go with ever one your leaning towards most.

IMO- CF is sick. but black would be a cooler like more aggresive look.

well for pic ref. here is a pic of the cf vinyl from customtc.com just the center pieces. i didnt like it to be honest. i think if it was matte black it would have def. looked better. this is a older pic i have since then took it off. to me i like the vinyl being there just the cf look looks to fake. i think the matte black would def look better then the cf.

but on another note if you wanted to do cf. every think abotu going with a real cf dash kit? like this one i mean sure it cost more but it is real. just throwing that out there lol.

yeah vinyl Cf is no good, in fact you will most likely get flamed pretty bad. Wo w/ the black or the Scion kit.
