I've got a buddy that owns a business that installs wood, carbon fiber and brushed aluminum dash kits on showroom-floor cars at dealerships. If you're like me, the dated interior of my TII needs some quality CF accents. If enough people are interested, I'll see if I can get some pics and pricing.

This will be an entire dash kit. I'm going to have a kit built to my specs. It will most likely include radio surround, instrument cluster surround, possibly interior instrument cluster surround, center console, the vents up by the a pillar, possibly power window switch surround, shifter surround.
Any suggestions?

Hell I'd be interested in ANY replacement full-dash.
Price is kinda important, but CF shouldn't be too expensive once you have a mold of a good one. I'd probably paint it black or get a cover anyway if I get one haha..

im thinking the op was talking more about one of those stupid trim kits, like you see on ebay all the time, that just sticks on your old ****, and comes in either carbon "look" or a chinsey cheap aluminum. not sure, but thats just what im guessing.

Only if you build it the way I want it. No radio surround. I want a blank radio surround separately. Everything else can be the same as stock (Idiot lights, tachometer area). With or without a glove box is ok.
this is a full, replacement dash. I don't care if it's CF, FG or plastic. If it saves ME the time of building it and it's reasonably priced then you have a customer here.

ok Ill chime in. A full replacement dash would be cool, but it will be very expensive for what you will get back in sales, with the expense of the molds and everything. The only type of deal you can do is if you do it at your own cost first and then try to sell a few, then you will end up not having the money to invest in a great product. I personally am going to make one for myself and a customer of mine.

If we're talking about DRY lay-up, pre-preg stuff, I'd pay good money for it.
If it's that shiny, wet lay-up, cheap ****, forget it.
All I need is more shiny **** on the dashboard...
