Here are some pictures of the 1st/test piece i'm doing for "efinimazda". I'm doing this piece just to get the GB started since a lot of people want to see the quality and fitment before they commit to the GB. Install pics coming soon....

Vacuum infused, plain weave carbon fiber RHD blank AC panel.





Back side is smooth and clean


BTW this was just pop out of the mold and washed with water. So i haven't touched it yet and it looks awesome already.

Can I please get some clarification as to whether or not I should place a deposit? What I mean is:

1) Am I going to be able to only order the pieces that I want, as specified, or do I HAVE to buy the full four piece kit?

2) Supposing I can buy only specified pieces, can I please have a price break down of each piece?

3) You said that you needed five people per kit "type" in order to move forward. The are only two people interested in the "type" that I want, including myself, at present. Am I (and Herblenny) SOL?

Thanks.

Eddie,

Nothing against the GB... But I have the JKL CF interior and it took quite a bit of work to fit in my car. So, for that reason, I prefer to make sure all fits without an issue. Also, looking at these pics, the edge looks kind of rough and also not sure if those tabs will hold down. Just want to see some honest fitment opinion.

That's my worry too as I've read lots of comments on JKL. I expect some massaging but don't want to spend that money to "make" something work.

Don't get me wrong.. JKL did a great job on their stuff. Overall I am very happy with my interior. Problem was that I had to take the thing off and on like 5+ times trying to figure out why the gauge cluster surround and hood didn't stay up... It took like 1.5 day to put on.

Also, with this GB, I mainly want just the Track AC/Center and map pocket.. mainly map pocket for now. But would like to see how it all fits together.

I'm not trying to bash or anything, just constructive criticism but.... Those tabs look really crooked and thin, not to mention the aforementioned rough edges. The carbon looks great but overall I don't see a $950 product. This looks more akin to something I'd get from China on eBay for like $250. Again I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything, just calling it as I see it.
