Possible to have it in a satin finish with the clear coat?

Also if you could post a close up on the weaves that would be great.

Im interested.

Fitment would be one of my main concerns.

If you look at any of the pics these Chinese companies produce or look at the fine print of their ads, most are poorly finished and they won't guarantee any sort of fitment. If someone would put out some legit parts, I'd be all over it.

Depending on pricing and fitment id be willing to go in. Would love to have the door panel inserts in CF to match as well.

Start a list and ill mark myself down...

What about the arm rests on the driver and passenger side? I'm a big stickler on having things match. Would the weave line up with each piece?

Is there any possibility for a one-off set with a blank dash with the two outer cutouts, a blank HVAC panel, and blank armrest save the shifter cutout?

I am willing to pay a premium if there is guaranteed fitment with great execution

Strong interest. Stronger interest if available in a matte finish.

The Chinese sets run about $700... I'd be in for a fair bit more than that if the quality is higher and more consistent.

QUALITY is the key here.....you will be surprised just how much we would all pay for non glossy finish, bubble free, matching weave, correctly fitting pieces.

I would also like to plant the seed for RHD panels also.....maybe i am dumb but i cant find quality ones anywhere.....

Does anyone here have feedback on the fitment for the interior pieces offered by Carbon Miata?

I would have except that after 3 months of waiting, I gave up. Tons of empty promises and he makes them in China as well so prob not any better.

I'm in if the fitment is good. I realllly want the door plastics to match though. I do understand that the map box presents a problem but I can live with that. If anything, I'd support a driver side door panel that was one piece and did away with the map box lid in favor of a nicely finished pocket.

Not interested in carbon fiber but in need of a cluster hood, from what I have seen we are SOL for OEM replacements. Depending on price I may be down for a cluster hood and ill paint it black.
