I am also redoing my dash panels. My original panels are some type of plastic and keep breaking apart some I'm making the new ones out of aluminum and covering them in this 3M Carbon Fiber look film http://www.carbonfiberfilm.com/

You are correct, there is a plastic sheet that already comes with the carbon fiber look already on it but I cannot find the supplier anymore. I have seen a dash that used it and had it engraved so that it just broke through the carbon fiber cover then it had lights behind it that shined through.
