If only you took your time and did it right correctly as the edges could of been better. Would of looked clean if it was near perfect.

Gives the driver a sense of luxury. Too bad not many see it to appreciate it and justify the work put into it.

Happy 4th of July, doods.

Not only a sense of luxury but the dash was plain when I first sat in an AC. I invisioned something to give the interrior an edge. I put a blue/black real CF kit in mine and wasn't diappointed.
I applaud and like what mmx23z did, good job for the amount CF he used. The only question I have was this real CF or the simulated kind? I do see some imperfections but these are easy to correct.

To me, and I think the majority, real carbon fiber does not exude a sense of luxury, but top-of-the-line performance. Assuming it is constructed in the right manners, it can be really lightweight stuff. No offense to anyone, but I think if someone puts on a cf overlay, they either like how the CF weave looks or want to make their vehicle's performance appear better than it actually is. Maybe sometimes both...

Again, no offense!

thanks! no i don't think it was real carbon fiber... i wasn't really trying to build a light weight center console :rotflmao really its only for cosmetic reasons, i too thought the car could use less of that aluminum/grey trim & some more design, & i wasn't trying to go around spray canning my interior lol so dangeris referred me over to this place http://destronsgarage.com/ their super cheap & ship super fast, i received my fabric in 3 days but i just ordered some more i want to fix my mistakes & do the steering wheel trim & its deff. not as easy as it looks lol

Looks good. If you dont already plan on doing so... wrap the cup holder cover. To each his own. Thats what "customizing" is. I dont think everyones first attempt on customizing cars went perfect, I know mine didnt. Keep up the good work. :bigthumb:
