There's not many sections on the 4th gen dash that would suit a wrap.

The 5th gen has the nasty walnut trim around the stereo, centre console and window switches that needs hidden badly and suits wrapping.

Flock it!

I alway think "wrapping" in carbon fibre "effect" vinyl (or even wrapping in real carbon fibre) completely contradicts what carbon fibre is for... And it will look fake... And there's nothing worse han looking fake ;-)

Flocking looks very cool and this company appear to do it for you if you send them your dash/door cards etc
