Cost a fortune but fairly unique I think?











I might get a surround similar to this. It is made by WIN in Japan.



What do you think?

You benefited from my purchase anyway! Cool

Ta mate. I am not certain that the chrome will look good with the cf, but I might give it a go?!?!

As far as I understand, they are stock parts laminated with the carbon stuff on top for carbon fiber look. Pretty much like what you see in the JZX100 etc I guess? No problem with that coz I have a blue gray interior and I think it will possibly make the car look much more modern than the wood grainish stock finish.

LOL I only just won the gear at auction. I haven't seen the stuff yet!

From the description:

'Graphic carbon paint is done in the genuine used item.'

They seem to do some nice work!

....and this is what my dash should look like once I get it! Mind you, I opted out on the steering cover in cf like in the picture. I didn't think it would kinda match the steering wheel?




YUMMY!

I love that look.

Makes the inside look a lot more modern.

You know I love to help people. Usually, I am a big softy for that kinda stuff. But right now, I have so much on, I can't commit to anything like that. Maybe once I have my car on the road I might see what I can do?

Cheers,

Chris
