S14 Interior Questions.....

Ok, so I bought this car a few months ago and have not had much time to really make it mine. Well the time has come and there is a few things I want to change out but I do not know my options. The owner before me loved carbon fiber "covered" trim. So my gauge cluster, pedals, ebrake, dash trim, and door trim has this material. I like the gloss on it because it dosnt get scratches like normal black or aluminum trim but I hate the CF look. Just does not sit well with me. Is there trim that is made with the same finish that is not cf wrapped(or woodgrain blahh)?

Im just going to consolidate this and also bring up my gauges. I hate them. With exception of making my own like a broadfield set up. Is there any other gauge type insert that is not white dials that gives you blue lighting?

I also have a nismo logo on my dash but im afraid to remove it due to residue. Also my dash looks in great condition but it could have a slight sun fade possibly and may have left a tan line. Has anyone had this scenario? What should I do? Leave it? Simple green it and hope there isnt a ring?

for the gauges, get oem faces and do blue led's.can't help you on the trim.or the dash.

So I just change the face to get back to the black and buy blue leds? hmm sounds simple enough im go try and find a pic and see how it looks.

That trim does not look like it has been wrapped, it looks like real CF.......Why not take it out and paint it?

if you look around the vents, buttons and other pieces, you can see the original plastic parts. doubt very seriously it's real, just a decal/stick-on material

[Fish805]

Its not real CF its stick on. And I dont want to paint it because it will scratch. Im trying to find a black trim that has the same think gloss . Plastics, Paints, and aluminum trim scrap easy.

[Fish805]

any more input?

[adrianfromthecastle]
