"Hard" c/f uses acrylic resins and a mixture of hardners and then they "impregnate" this mixture into the pores of the fabric once molded to shape they polish the acrylic to a high shine . now our process is different ......to allow flexability to the finished product we use a polyurethane resin,and then cut the finished product.
So in conclusion although the finishing process we use is different it is indeed real carbon fiber A lotof work goes into the finishing of this product so just because it doesnt suit you taste ,that doesnt make our product "CRAP" and as far as the statement of it being "fake" that statement is just totally incorrect.

sorry to be so long winded but i needed to vent.

What was the kit called again? "Death by Carbon Fiber" ? Holy hell its everywhere. for some reason the contrast between the original silver dash buttons and the CF is killing me aesthetically.

Sorry...nothin wrong with the existing scheme. We go from the silver metal look to the plastic carbon fiber look? Why don't you put carbon fiber stickers on the pedals also....wait...don't forget the outside of the car.

I lilke it better that way. I would have taken off the left and right strips all the way up the cennter console. And probably the center section around the temp. **** and the piece above it.

Hey, I looked at your cardomain site: How difficult was the interior led conversion? Could you post some pics of that, maybe a how to, and where you got the parts?

what about silver carbon-fiber? I'd like to use that instead of standard brushed aluminium.

Also, anyway you can make custom individual pieces, either silver c/f or aluminium? PM me if you can, thanks!

Yah, where are the pictures of the Silver Carbon Fiber. Also, is your carbon fiber dash kit a 2x2 mesh? Because i looked at lvnrs9 Dash Kit and for some reason it looks better than this one, maybe its just the camera?? not sure, but yah, i want Hers but still no price

That, in no way, resembles real carbon fiber. Personally, when I get my tC (which I hope will be here by the end of the month) I think I'll overlay the pieces myself.
