first stop posting in everyone elses thread, you need 15 posts then you can start your own thread. I suggest going to the picture forum and complimenting people then coming back here. Also search through the forums and you will find info on engine swaps. and oh yeah supply more info in your questions and we can help you more.

yes it is real CF and as far as the glove box yeah for some reason it only covers half... i thought it was weird too! but yet there is a piece for the trim piece to the right of the glove not that you can make it very well on the pic. i need to email the manufacturer and make sure that's the way it's suppose to be

as far as swtnblaze what the heck is that all about all i see is the replies but no original post????

Nice batmobile pedals, and what are you using that can of bondo for?
I would also second the notion that it's not my thing, but you did a nice job on it. The only thing I would recommend for the door sills is to actually make it so that it will be "sunk" into the plastic, if you know what I mean.

I was kinda thinking the same thing, disgruntled. I'd be too afraid that the first time they got the least bit wet, they'd be out on the street. Otherwise, the kit looks nice. Reminds me of the one I used to have. Did that one come with the front and back door switch inserts?

I think I would have left the piece off of the glove box since it doesnt fit right. Maybe just use the opening handle piece. Thats jmo though.

Looks good though. How is the weave...is it nice and tight? I ask because a couple of years ago I saw Craig B's CF dash and wanted one. I bought a cheap version because they sent me a nice sample piece. Well when I got the pieces the weave was very loose and not as tight as the sample they sent me. I wound up sell it and painting my pieces, blue at first (to match the color I was painting the car) blah what was I thinking...then a nice silver.

the reason i did CF is I'm doing everything in gray and black

as far as the bondo that's for the center tail light that I'm molding in still have a little bit more to do...

as far as the sills to be honest i don't care for them that much but i paid for them might as well use them. the looked better in the ad i bought it from but not a bad idea molding them in...

yes they do have the front and rear door door switches here is a pic if all the piece. and yes the weave on the CF is nice and tight not all sloppy
