Holy moly, that looks HOT. Why no matching carbon fiber for the upper console, which I can see is covered in the black carbon fiber instead?

Holy hell, is that red CF??? Now that is HOT... Normally I don't like these kinds of mods, but that's just too awesome. I'm sold already.

That really looks hot. Didn't know you could have red CF.
That would look great on my MRM350.
Was that custom made?

Looks good.

I wish Lexus had more options in terms of console color/texture choices. I would love Blackwood or perhaps true shiny aluminum...

^^Definetly looks good. However you'd probably need aerotects clearbra "interior cutout" to keep it fresh and to prevent scratches.
