Daston Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Envy do full carbon dash's but they are not cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SILKYSMOOTH Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 I think I have seen these ones, but I didn't want to spend too much right now, and I am leaning heavily towards the brushed alluminium...as I have plans for a two tone interior that is black and silver grey too. has anyone used the stick on ones from ebay?

Daston Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 That looks just like the stick on parts that you can get on ebay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tones Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 But those are stickers, the envy is fully carbon It says its made from real carbon fibre Quote "This is a complete dash kit made from real carbon fiber - NOT synthetic!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lebsteif Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 It says its made from real carbon fibre It can be made of carbon, but still act as a sticker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SILKYSMOOTH Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 By the way I have an N/A Auto. Is that a left hand drive dash? I also want to get the top lip of the dash in the same material. If you know what I mean! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tones Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 It can be made of carbon, but still act as a sticker. Well whats the difference then? Does anyone have that kit here from mvp? just going by what it says on the site, says its made from real carbon fibre not synthetic, doesnt say theyr eonly stickers that go over your current dash, some confirmation here would be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mk47 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 way too cheap to be a full carbon fibre dash tbh. its more than likely the stick on bit hence the "kit" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Yeah the pic is the same as the ebay kit layout. Look at the handle for the glove box its just a sticker where as the envy one is a compleate mold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tones Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Maybe so but id love to know would u really be able to tell the diference if it was done correctly Some difference in the money to be fair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mk47 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Maybe so but id love to know would u really be able to tell the diference if it was done correctly Some difference in the money to be fair yeah because you can still see the edges and plus on the gearstick level you will still see lots of the original dash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have that kit here from mvp? just going by what it says on the site, says its made from real carbon fibre not synthetic, doesnt say theyr eonly stickers that go over your current dash, some confirmation here would be good Basically I think this means that it is covered with real carbon fibre not the fake synthenic carbon fibre looking stuff, I would hope that the one from envy is made completely new and a direct replacement and these other ones are the sticky covers that go over the top of your existing dash which are still made of real carbon fibre but have to be installed ontop of the old dash.

SILKYSMOOTH Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 So if the ones off ebay (that are real carbon fibre) are installed well...will they will look good enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 nope i had one of the ebay ones and you can tell its just stuck on the lines of the fiber didnt line up very well on the curves and around the ignision drum you could see the dash underneath.
