If you do those dash panels, which look pretty good btw!, you MUST do matching door plastic trim Especially on the drivers side as the main gauge cluster wraps around into the door and it would look bad to have a nice CF gauge cluster butted against the stock door trim.
Also is it possible to do the panels in a dry carbon or NON glossy finish?

Yes A LOT of people inquired about these panels and I can definitely make them IF somebody can send me a set! As you know I am in Shanghai and RX-7 parts are inexistant here.
As for the matte finish, yes this is something I can offer since last week!
Mould being made as we speak! Updates soon!
Oh and I am adding products to The Ultimate Resource For MX-5 Miata Carbon Fiber Parts item by item. If you did buy some parts from me, I would be extremely happy if I could get some pictures of the parts fitted!!! That would help me A LOT!!!

Any problem with the set? I asked pictures fitted to all the persons that bought this set (around 25 people now!!!) and none of them replied me!
If you meet some problems, let me know! I would love to see some pictures fitted also!
Finally, one important point is that for the LHD 4 pcs interior kit, I didn't do the moulds myself. If I get the samples from you, I will personaly make the moulds so that will be much better!
Anyway if you have any problem shoot me an email info@carbonmiata.com with the problems you met WITH PICTURES if possible! Thanks,
Marc

Other issues include buttons not fitting, and some incorrect tabs in the rear.
However, these panels will work with extensive modification, it won't look perfect though.

Thanks for the pictures!
Could you take some pictures of the whole parts fitted? It's pretty difficult to see where is the problem now!
Thanks for the help. I never had anybody giving me feedback for this set so I am glad I can finally get some even if I am really sorry if you are not satisfied...
Could you give me your name/email by PM so that I check when you got it from me? I can't remember your forum nickname now!

These are the fitted pics for the cluster and hood, I don't plan on installing it into the car anytime soon, but from what I can tell, I will encounter a lot of problems. The whole piece is in constant tension because as shown in my original pic 3 posts ago, the two pieces don't even come close to lining up. The seam where all the pieces connect, are wavy and not straight at all. Also, the button not fitting for me just tells me that there is no quality control on this piece.
Are you going to give me a refund/replacement or will I have to bite on the bullet on this one?
It's just a little strange that a vendor doesn't know his own product and has to ask for pics from someone who purchased them. Maybe you should give me a refund and take this set I have.
