Looks interesting...Although..I thought the point to using CF was to reduce weight...Where as you are just adding the weight by adding the CF to the stock console...If its just the look you are after, why not just do what someone else here did and just get it printed on...

Of course, I forgot to mention I like the idea (sorry, its late), and this may just be cheaper, and its probably fun . It may be what I end up doing too

The only questions on my mind are: How much weight is saved, and How easy is it to paint?

It's easy to paint, but WHY WOULD U WANT TO PAINT CF?????

As for focus, I was taking those late night and my camera sucks.

I don't like being all flashy about weight reduction

Not sure about the price yet, I'm trying to see how hard it would be to get it over the main center trim. I will come up with price soon.
