I don't want to paint the dash...I like the look of the carbon fiber dash in the FD's.

Yeah, that does look pretty good. Is that a silver I see? I might do that instead. I really like that. Damn, now I'm confused.

Hey Crashunit, where did you get your switches w/ the red covers? I've been looking for some like those. I assume those are still for the fog lights and rear defroster, right? If so, are they easy to wire to a toggle switch?

No they were for Nos and my battery kill switch, the middle one is for the rear deforster, and I have no fog lights. They can be used for those things tho, they just like anyother switches. Oh, and they are Nos switches.

I've seen lots of CF kits, and I think this is one of the best around, I saw some other ones with more pieces, but they look more fake. Then I saw some really nice looking one with no center concole, cant have it all i guess. But If your want the real **** and best quality, go for mark's who posted above, I just wished he would have told us about it earlier .

What kind of paint would I have to use? Do you think that would scratch and chip?

Ok, while all you FDs get all this support, some of us FCs are suffering from 80s syndrom and would like to know where we can get a CF concole... heck, a CF anything for the FCs would be nice. so if anyone can drop a line, that would be awesome.

It's not a kit. You send in your interior pieces, he does the CF overlay, then you get your pieces back.
