Default Pics of the Comptech carbon fiber dash kit

Sorry for the delay......I'm an HTML/FTP idiot.

Here's the kit:

Driver's side door:


Passenger side door:


Center console:


Shifter plate:


The pictures are big - so I just left the URL's instead. There is also a piece that goes around the dash bezel and another piece that goes over the buttons near the E-brake. Fit/finish are excellent. Installation is easy.

Damn, that looks fuggin GREAT!!!
Where did you get this, how much, and could you elablorate on "Installation is easy", please? Some of those parts I wouldn't have a clue on getting on/off; does it give detailed instructions for each piece? How long did it take?
(Curious minds want to know...)

As the title says, the kit is from Comptech. They were clearing them out about 6 months ago and I picked one up - but never installed it until a couple of weeks ago.

The pieces bend into place and you just peel the backing off and put it over the existing plastic - just like a sticker. No instructions are given. Installation took 20 minutes. There are two small pieces that I haven't figured out yet though.

that looks great bpr, how is the adhesive on the back of those c/f pieces? does it stick really well, only concern i would have is that they might start to peel off? too bad they weren't total replacements. either way, looks great.

the adhesive is very strong. Stronger than some double-sided foam tape I have at home. I'm thinking that it will be on there for a long time.

When my car was stolen, The crooks actually took any panels with CF on it, the ones they couldnt remove they tried pulling off the pieces of CF. The adhesive was so strong that it actually ripped the CF apart when trying to pull the pieces off. That was almost 1 year after the kit was installed.

Whether it's accidental or intentional, it's still ******* hilarious. Easily the best "back from the dead" I've seen.

You should pick that one up for your car but for some reason I just don't think it will ever fit right.
