Guys I’m getting close on two cars out of state. One with Carbon Fiber trim and one without. I did a few searches on the forum and could not find a clear answer...

How is the quality of the Carbon Fiber trim in the Raptor? I have real Carbon Fiber in my GT4 and love it but I’m assuming the Raptor isn’t real? Or is it????

I haven’t seen it in person myself!

Pretty sure it's real. My first experience with CF but it's nice.

I have it, don’t know if it’s real. How do you test it to validate it is real? If it’s not I believe it’s equal quality to the other plastic you get in its place if you don’t order the option. So what the hell, it looks good.

my new truck has it. It is "real", but it does not dominate the interior. Just a nice little accent.

It looks like real carbon cloth under the clear. If it’s not real, it’s a damn good fake carbon.

I really like it especially the feel of the shifter.

definitely worth it in my opinion. it has the typical interior carbon texture and it's great on the shifter as others said and certainly adds to the cabin feel.

I actually did not want the CF option, as I like the feel of leather in the shifter.

It is real CF, but purely cosmetic and doesn't serve any functional purpose. Expensive, but I like the look.

Pretty much this. I think it has just the right amount of CF to make the interior pop a bit. I don't like some of the aftermarket packages where they cover every trim piece imaginable with CF. Looks like ass.
