Here you go...

looks good so far, bet that took you ages to get it out the car. I though dash's were deliberately non-shiny to prevent reflections in the windscreen and prevent glare. Your going to have to drive with your shades on mate smileys/smiley17.gif

[Dan]

Has it been made from carbon or covered in carbon look material?

[liamk15]

its abit hard to see mate have you got any better quality pictures???

[lee]

sorry lads yes got more pictures upload them tonight and yes dan its coverd in carbon material.alex i thought about that already about the glare only if its painted so dont need to wear shades smileys/smiley16.gif

[gafvts]

looking good mate cant wait to see the finished article smileys/smiley17.gif

[Scott]

so is it being skinned in genuine carbon? or is the carbon material you refer to just carbon look?

[Tony_Jay86]

Looking good although you need to get some better bigger pictures up.

they you go lads thats it so far for the pictures what do you think about the centre panel,glove box lid air vents etc should i paint them or retrim them please give me some ideas smileys/smiley4.gif

[Tony_Jay86]

I'd say all the bits you have to put back on the dash spray them silver, but thats my opinion, try going for something that isnt so popular, cant really think of anything at the moment as my brain is on the shut down.

[lee]

well i have momo steering wheel and the centre bit is white so should i paint the vents etc white or black fcuk knows any body please smileys/smiley19.gif

[JayWard]

how much has it cost for you to do that mate if ya dont mind me asking! looks good!

[lee]

did it myself but dont know what to do with the glove box lid etc have you any ideas jay smileys/smiley4.gif

[Dino209]

paint them shine gloss black or gun metal grey to keep with the dark tone. what shop did you get the carbon from mate?

[Tony_Jay86]

Ever thought about getting rid of them horrible colour lights on the speedo & replacing them with blue led's?

Possibly one of my next mods, just have to have a word with my brother about it as he used to work at lucas trw in burnley & he's used to soldering tiny things.
