Have someone wrap what you want, looks a lot better and more choices.

I bought a cf dash kit off of corksport too and after a year I cant really say its worth the amount of money I paid either

It looks awesome if your just walking by but when someone actually sits in the car and examines it... meh

There was a tuning shop here in Seattle that sent my parts to Indonesia turn around time was 3 months and $1100. There is sonic 7 here on the forum that might help you out. Check out car shows like h.i.n. and ask around. A tan interior might look dope with yellow carbon, the black in the weave to blend in the black dash. I drew a pic of how the dash pieces fit together so that the patterns would match up like they were supposed to.

RX72NR, as its been stated, the craftsmanship of your dash is incredible (AUTOMATIC!! J/K). i just cant imagine driving with that in front of me, it looks way too distracting for me.

if i could do it again, i would not have wasted money on a carbon fiber lay over kit. i cant justify paying $1100 for a overlay either, but if you've got the money, hey, more power to you? id rather have it all made of genuine carbon fiber. no wrap, no vinyl. im sure that wouldve costed a lot of money as well, but its more justifiable then the kit i have. im not trying to put benevento's product down, for what it is, it's the best quality i've ever seen. but it seems too ricer boy, somewhat fake to me.

with that said, here are some shots of my corksport/benevento 16piece dash kit (i only have 14 pieces im pretty sure. i didnt put on the double din cover or dash vent separator, and im pretty sure thats all i dont have.) Sonic7 is also worth checking out. his work is awesome.

sorry about the picture size, you cant really see the quality in the pictures. but im sure you get the idea.

r71 has the complete dash as CF - not just little parts overlayed with stick-ons.
