Default CF Interior

Curious if anyone has experience with the company wood dash experts.com

I have the Carson tuned CF interior but this one has all the pieces and it is freakin cheap?!?

here is the link http://www.wooddashexperts.com/custo...at=5445&page=1

This Is VERY Very Tempting, Especially after seeing the interior in person!

The Carson tuned CF interior is definitely better quality. My friend used this on his 350Z and the quality is nothing near the Carson Tuned CF pieces.

Just curious.... if the people with the CF interior trim decide to take it off in the future... won't they leave behind a sticky residue? It's pretty much impossible to clean that residue off unless you don't mind scratching up the wood clearcoat...

That looks pretty good from a price standpoint ($260), and it contains more pieces than the Carson kit, but I haven't seen it in person so can't comment on it from that aspect. I'm very happy with the CF kit I have from Carson, the carbon fiber is rich and deep and it fits perfectly. I think the final Group Buy price was $370 at the time. Would like to see someone use and comment on this cheaper kit as it might be a viable alternative.

I am thinking of buying the kit and using some of the pieces to accent other areas f the interior, but not all. It is worth it to see how the weave looks.

Excusiv - from your post sounds like you have seen this. If so you obviously thought it looked good...?

Ya, I think this will be nice. They seem to have a large on-line prescence and many applications. Their other products they sell are also not "bottom-of-the-barrell" quality so it is prb a safe bet.

I will do this and will post pics when it is installed.

Interested to se the aluminum too.
