some updates for my F, definitely a huge upgrade for the interior which makes the F look many years younger.
My current set up, OEM paddels, I prefered the OEM look with a nice contrast and themore decent look over the carbon paddels, also while shifting it feels more solid than the light carbon paddels. Probably will color match the Lexus logo in middle with the ALuminum of the cluster and the paddels.
Engine cover signed by Yukihiko Yaguchi, the F chief engineer himself, changed the LEMS Titan Intake I had before for the dry carbon version. Difference with other Carbon intakes on the market? It's full dry carbon and the tubes on top are one piece with the intake body itseld, this is the weak point and all cheap carbon versions are just glued on, after some time they come off from vibration and you can throw them in the trash. Quality is best you can get, but better don't ask about the price
I have a full radiator, trans and oil cooler upgrade as you can see in my other topic engine bay still looks like OEM by avoiding placing the lines from the top what would require to cut some of the panels.
Removing cluster, steering wheels and other parts
Changing the airbag was a pain in the ***. even with proper tools it took me two hours
Putting everything back again
As you can see I changed the Engine Start button to a red one, it's a nice contrast with the red stitching and quality was very good, its still illuminated and installation was done in 20 minutes.
More details of the carbon parts
Laminated OEM parts to make them fit with the steering wheel, I never really liked the silver OEM look and the quality of the job here was 100% as you can see on the photos, no firment issues at all after and everything opens and closes as it should.
An other signature from Yukihiko Yaguchi himself :-)
Really nicely done, where did you source the airbag cover?
Not sure where the OP got his from but Elvin on Instagram is well known for all of his carbon goodies and definitely does an airbag cover like this (many styles). Ive got my carbon wheel, extended paddles etc from him, all top quality
