NICE! I do the same thing with old cf hoods. Mind if I pick your brain about the wheel center cap? I'm curious as to what you did on the back side to keep it in there.

I'm surprised that the glue doesn't heat up. That was my worry with the custom brackets I was making. Didn't thing the glue would hold with the heat that is generated in that area.

The glue isn't really what's holding it. I put the glue there and pressed them on that way I could then flip the rim over and put a bead of rtv around it. The rtv is what's really holding them on

All I'm saying is wow. I have a 95 civic coupe and want a carbon fiber dash and inside door panels. Do you know where I can get some? Made or bought, either way.
