AMG Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 I thought i would share a few pics of my attempot at the carbon effect dash wrapping. Very fiddly but i am very pleased with the results. The pics dont do it justice really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Very nice mate. Impressed with how it's turned out around the notoriously tricky ignition. It looks almost like it could be OEM, except for the gauges and blitz controllers. Replace the gauges etc with the HKS Camp 2 http://www.hksusa.com/info/?id=3474 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
