Hey guys and girls,

looking for some picture of the carbon fibre dash inserts we can buy for our cars. Ive had little luck finding photos after the installation, all i find is people selling them or advertising they can provide such a service. I think the would look good in my car but im still undecided so help convince me guys

Post up as many pic of the inserts as you want or can, ill appreciate that greatly

Thanks guys

 

emerald should have some pics

 

You mean CF to cover the wood, or other parts? I'm all for that.

 

That's easy to make

 

Only in a black interior, thad be sick, otherwise not so much..

 

Yeah if any clublexus member has it in there car that would be awesome to see some pics

Ideally i would like the whole panels redone in real CF, not really wanting stickers as they look tacky and you can see its fake.

Yeah here is a pic of the interior with the proposed areas that would be mostly likely redone in CF. Just need pics and prices now haha

Also anyone want to tell me how these panels can be totally removed from the dash and around the centre console. Ive never taken them out so guidance would be good so I don’t break them

its on ebay!!

 

I think that looks great, especially on darker interiors.

 

Is that your interior ?. If so looks amazing man. Any more pics ?.

 

Is that real CF or just the stickers? Also it doesnt include the plastics around the air vents and the door handles in CF I would ideally like the whole thing done in CF not just a sticker over the top.

Yep thats my interior, well was. Currently has stock rear and front seats in it with the recaro door inserts, handrest etc however ill be buying a new set of recaros very soon and also retrim the back in the same material as the new front recaro seats.

Anyone got pictures of either real CF or even the stickers installed on a SC?

 

That looks a lot better than the wood. I think it could also look nice in a tan interior. Obviously, it looks good with a black interior but for some reason, I think I like the wood with black interiors more than with tan interiors.

 

that ebay stuff is all stickers. i wouldnt do it. it would be all tacky.

i might have a buddy from an aeronautical engineering university make me a lip, all wood inserts, and if i remove my sunroof a big piece to cover it up

he works with CF all the time and he made a custom lip for my friends mk3 supra. looks amazing.

 

Well let me know if you do get any moulds and templates made as im sure a few boys from Australia would be more than interested. Ive seen actual inserts for sale somewhere but it was a long time ago. With your friend the only problem would be that the centre console part would be the mirror image of what mine is as your have LHD and ive got RHD. Be interesting to hear what your buddy thinks about making some stuff up in CF. And i agree with the 150% about stickers been tacky, there even bloddy pricey for imitation CF like $150USD for stickers

 

thats a pretty nice and clean interior. thats one of the only times i think that cloth looks pretty good in there

 

i personally wouldnt put that sticky cf stuff in the car. Judging by the effort you have gone to on that interior, you wouldnt be happy by the finish anyway.

Try and get the original stuff covered... or if you are feeling brave, you can try it yourself.


goodluck bud.
