Yeah i was surprised at the detail especially with the gear surround and air con unit, with the holes for the lights. I hope it does also.

Hey Marc, is that the silver carbon fibre or the real black carbon fibre??

Scott....the templates look amazing. I cant believe it covers so much stuff!!

For $250 delivered...I would definately consider it. Just want to see the colour of the carbon fibre. The darker the better.

This is the 22 piece kit that costs like $250 off e-bay, some pieces you won't use as it will over complicate things and some pieces require a little alteration which is very fiddly!

It's real carbon fibre you can see the weave and all but it's not very dark so if you're after dark which I was carbon fibre is not the way to go! Just reflects too much light etc and makes my car look a bit cheap and tacky :-( considered changing back to dark woodgrain but can't be arsed!

Yeh,
Just like I thought. I'm gonna go with my original plan. I've sprayed the whole interior black....and the plastic panels and centre console i'm having sprayed in a very deep shiny/glossy 2-pac black.

Should look very classy when its done.

Its costing me $100 to have all those bits sprayed...not bad.

Should look sweet. I was tossing up that idea or redoing the wood trim in a lighter finish (kinda orangish-tan) with the woodgrain pattern showing.

Thanks Marc, I'm interested in a close up of the fit and the pattern. Also shots of the Air con vent on drivers side, the bit under dash, a close up of the electric window button panel and PRDNL auto lever bit would be much appreciated. Do you think the colour of the kit does not suit a black interior in person? Thanks mate.

Ok guys sorry about the lengthy delay, they said the boss man was on holidays.

Ok what i have so far is, if we can get 10 kits ordered its US$150 + postage.
And compared to the price on ebay of US$190 + postage.

I will know more soon.

So what you guys think, still interested??

Hey guys and gals,

Alrighty, its all good to go, if we can get at least 10 kits ordered it will be US$150 + US$32 postage. So just US$182. Pretty good i think.

Here is the materials available:

http://www.exoticwoodtrim.com/material.asp

And here is the dash on their site if you want to look at anything else.

http://www.exoticwoodtrim.com/productdetail.asp?pid=1341

If anyone is interested put your name down or pm me and i will start a list.

First is just to see how many people would do this, once we start getting numbers i will make a "definite" list with details on what everyone wants.
