Default Source for carbon fiber sheet?

Does anyone know where I can get a sheet of carbon fiber, finished glossy, 10" x 15"?
Thickness doesn't matter just needs to be finished, not raw.
Thanks.

It's for a friend actually, I think he wants to use it somewhere in the interior of his '72.

How about a carbon fibre laminate?
This stuff looks good and has glossy or matte finish

You can also get vinyl that looks like it.

That is cheaper if you are just wanting the look.
