SuperSupra Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 very nice mate, been looking at these recently too Cheers bud, I like them. One thing though - I thought you would simply have to stick the new heater dial faces straight onto the old face, but you have to do it from behind - bit fiddly but not too bad.

SuperSupra Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 your retrimed dash in carbon fibre looks smart is it a matt finish or glossy ? Thanks mate. It's kinda glossy, but anti-glare so no shiny patches when it's sunny. Wasn't sure at first but it's growing on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperSupra Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 is it one of those things where photos never do it justice then ?? Yeah definitely mate, why are you trying to say the photo looks crap? Nah it definitely looks better in the 'flesh', and loads of people have used the same company for their dash kits.

Nah it definitely looks better in the 'flesh', and loads of people have used the same company for their dash kits. Ebay user called 'Kynu', based in the USA. yeah they never seem to fit in right with the photos i think the white comes out to strong with the flash most likely, but i bet in the flesh they look mint, is it real carbon fibre doesnt nic {import pimp} retrim them if you send them to him ??

Yeah it's real carbon weave, you can actually see the individual fibres interwoven if you look closely. Looks really good. Yeah Nic retrims them, no doubt is an even better look, but would probably cost considerably more, and also means being without your dash panels for however many weeks.
