The most important advice I can give you with this install is to be sure that you take your time an test fit test fit test fit.
You will beable to remove it if it's not seated all the way, just be careful not to do it to many times.

$165.00 Shipped. Be sure it's the REAL CARBON FIBER kit. Also if they don't have one, just email them, they will make it for you. They had to do it for me.

WoW looks great!

Looks excellent!
Very, very nice install!
Looks great in your car..

looks good. a great addition for those who don't have (or want) the IUP

Thanks for the write up. I just received my Double Brushed kit and I'm waiting on some warmer temperatures before I begin the install. Also, that Activator thing is that the same as an Adhesive promoter and under what temperature did you do the install (being winter and all)?

Well I'm in Florida so I started and it was about 80, and then tonight it was about 70. The instructions said to do it around between 70-100. Yes the activator is an adhesive promoter. I forgot to put it in the original directions. But you have to let it dry for about 5 minutes per 3M.

Great write up man, that looks fantastic, i think i will buy one of those carbon fiber dash kits, as they look nice and it seems really easy to install.

love the CF look -- good choice

the kit looks sick - excellent job on the install write-up, as well. thanks for taking the time!

Awesome looking, thanks for the write up.

Boozshey, what head unit you running in there? Looks good

Thanks for the write up! I was on the fence about buying this kit but after seeing this thread I ordered it last night. :)

Nice job. It really adds a special touch to your interior. You did a great job of explaining in every detail. Many people doing tech write-ups miss important details that comfuse the DIYer. I won't be doing this but I enjoyed reading about it anyway. Thanks!

That's the Avic-D3. I picked it up local for $600 off of Craiglist.com

that looks good. I really like that look alot. I have the IUP so I'm thinking about going with carbon on the doors andcenterpeices. good write up [sm=smiley20.gif]

nicely done, looks good
thanks for sharing

I can't say enough about this kit. The quality was top notch... So if anyone was looking at the more expensive ones, stop...

Looks fantastic. Will have to put that on my wish list.

looks sharp from a distance, but what about up close? Can you tell its stuck on? In other words, can you see the edges? I have a IUP with the light satin finish, and I hate to install this kit only to see 1-2 mm worth of satin show through on the sides. Thoughts?
