      I used this here:
      http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

      Its actually very very very easy to do, all you need is a hair dryer(not a heat gun its a waste of money its just as malleable with a hair dryer), a squeegee, and an exacto knife. It took me 4 hours to do the 4 door handles, the steering wheel, and the center console. I think its totally worth it, it looks amazing and it looks and feels like real carbon fiber. i still have alot left over too.

      Looks nice! I might just use that for mine to change up the look a little. I just really hate my little shift plate piece. So damn spotty & I tried everything that I could think of to get rid of that. This tape will be great for that, and I can also do all of those silver pieces throughout the Aveo. Sounds & looks easy, and the end result looks like it is very well worth it.
