Is there an option for a carbon fiber trim panels in the 2015s?

I met a guy who just bought this V6 auto and he said the trim panels were from the factory and not wrapped:

2015 Mustang Ecoboost w/PP - Now its a 2016 GT w/PP!!!
I thought it was only part of the performance package. that also comes with the 2 additional gauges on the dash. I don't see that in your pics. im not sure how you would get the carbon fiber without the pp. weird...

That is a V6 model with no PP, hence no gauges.

It's just plastic though.

Indeed it is plastic, but at least it has some texture to it.

I'm not complaining though! I love mine. I actually like the look better than the aluminum. The screen size, though... could be a little bigger.

Only the v6 has the carbon fiber.

I'm 99% sure EB 100A & GT 300A base models (w/o PP) also have this same carbon-fiber looking plastic dash.

The V6 is the only model to get black carbon fiber (plastic). The base model EB's and GT's get a diamond finished aluminum. PP cars get what is called an engine turned aluminum finish. This somewhat simulates a carbon fiber look but it is shiny aluminum and not black.

This is the same picture as his, but better lit. Base GT with PP. This is not a diamond finished aluminum but Carbon fiberish looking plastic.

I can see how in photos the PP and V6 look similar, but I assure you they are not. Only the V6 has texture, all the others will be smooth to the touch.
