Is any one familiar with the carbon fiber look gauge and center console kit? Is this an overlay or direct replacement?

I stumbled across this at japanparts.com.

 

There is a member on the forum that can do this work for you. He's forum name is mkoch1:

Yeah, their a great place to buy parts from. Im in the mixt of possibly having my interior redone in cf.

 

yeah most of the overlays look pretty crappy. i decided to have mkoch cover my parts in carbon fiber. the peeling on them was getting pretty bad. its a bit more expensive, but it'll look so much better.

as far as i know, there are no "replacement kits" for instrument panel parts, short of getting new ones from the dealer or used ones from a parts car.

 

I just got my parts back yesterday 2/25. i had the whole ineterior done by mark. I must say it looks so SWEEEEEEEEET there are pics of my stuff right now on his site. I am going to send him more stuff to do in the future. it looks 9,000 time better than that crappy overlay stuff. and it's easy to clean.. When i install i'll post pics. Mark if you read this ... Thanks again for the great work

 

so, badaz7, your parts were the ones I was waiting on! my stuff is up next. I can hardly wait.

 

So you reccomend mark over having the core layed upon?

 

If you are going to do it, have it done right.

 

So, nobody is making an interior kit, with stick on carbon fiber(or at least carbon fiber look)?
I would swear that i've read about it somewhere.

 

Yea, there are some links to the stick on stuff around here, however I've heard it's not that easy to apply and the quality is not as good as what Mark or some of the other guys on the forum offer.

 

Whats the number or email to the guy who does complete cf interior kits without core?

 

I don't think there is anyone that doesn't do "overlays" per say. You'll need to send anyone your interior pieces to have it done.

 

Not really, if you already have a FD, its very easy to make over lays with out having to have people sending in their interior peices (well for me it is). Here is an example of what I have done,


Too bad mkoch1 sold his FD though... That canam is pretty sweet though although I would have personnaly gotten the Ultima GTR (I personnaly hate verts but thats just me).

 

I didn't say you couldn't make overlays, I said I don't think the guys who do the work that are on the forum make overlays (or do the work without you sending your panels, as the question was asked).

There are plently of places on the web that sell the overlay kits. However, I've seen them and they aren't as good as what Mark does.

 

i'm not taking a side but when i bought my fd it had carbon fiber stickers? on it i like the idea of just sticking it on but i ended up taking it off cause it was all peeling and looked REALLY bad however i do like the look

 

you replied 5yrs to late LOL

 

time machine for sell here
