carbon fiber interior parts

I remember seeing a vendor who wraps interior parts in carbon fiber. What stands out in my memory was the option for colored carbon fiber. I'd appreciate any leads.

I'm looking to treat some plastic parts that are in the engine compartment that will get very hot. Any suggestions?

Hmmm... Can't help on the colored carbon fiber, although feel free to contact the usual suspects:

I've done many carbon and carbon kevlar overlays that have shown up on these pages. I've been buried with orders all summer but would be happy to seen if I can help out.
Here's just a couple examples:

This guy does absolutely great work! Jim wrapped my rear diffuser and tail gate handle and am 100% satisfied with his service and workmanship. As soon as I have spare time, I will post pics!

Wait so you guys just wrap carbon fiber over the plastic? Is this just for looks or does it also help against heat let say you do something carbon fiber wrapped in the engine bay?
