I know, these aren't the best pictures... that's because 1. I took them at night and 2. i'm still not finished with the installs, so the inside looks a mess... Final product =

Don't trust ebay much lately.Just try these guys:http://www.carwoodz.com = my trim looks exactly the same.

It's not about not trusting ebay, it's about the particular company... just because a company advertises and sells on ebay, doesn't mean you can't trust them..

Also, to fit the aftermarket double din unit, I had to get the center bezel custom made, these guys did it for free, and their customer service has been excellent!

oh yeah alien, I checked out the company you recommended when I was price checking... I didn't choose them because...

1. Their full kit is way overpriced!! $436 for Real carbon fiber???? uh, no!!

2. They stated that they would NOT custom make my center bezel piece.

3. I got samples from them, they use the exact same material as the guy I got my kit from... samples were identical... I just paid half the price!

From my experience, kits usually vary, not by quality, but by the install... promoterless 3M vs. kits that require a promoter... Kits that require a promoter WILL RUIN YOUR DASH!

So if your bought the full kit from these guys, and you used the promoter on your dash, congratulations... you paid too much and you ruined your dash!

Hey Doc,

Which color is the interior? Carbon Fiber or the Silver Carbon Fiber? Have you had any problem with them staying in place? Happy with the quality? Where did you order from?

Hey Doc,

regular carbon fiber... didn't really like the silver carbon fiber... got it from dash 4 less off o ebay... there should be a link on the first page

i love the kit.. oh yeah, staying on is not a problem... the problem with most folks regarding dash kits is that they don't properly prep the dash prior to application... PROPER prep involves like 3-5 washes with a proper solvent like #M prep solvent. Each wash with the solvent is followed by a wash with H20 and being allowed to dry. whole process just for the prep should take a coupe of hours if done properly... when folks skimp on the prep time, their kits start peeling off in a couple of months, and then they complain... but its not the kit, its the prep

thanks doc for your advise on how to prep for a proper install.

I'm think of getting this

Carbon Fiber (SCF)
