Default New from sewell--> replacement cf interior

It looks like there's a new addition to the Sewell website:

Full replacement carbon fiber interior pieces.

Here's the link: http://www.sewellpartsonline.com/par....asp?id=203157

(PS: don't shoot the messenger)

If it was half the price I'd consider it.

First they try and sell a painted peice of plastic for over $300, now $1000 for less than a square foot of carbon fiber (which looks to be fake)... you've got to be kidding

I too think it looks fake, the shading is all wrong. The price suggests otherwise though. I would expect a higher standard from them.
