I've seen installed pics on a website somewhere; it's cheesy. It's just flat pieces that stick on the top surfaces and don't wrap around the sides to make the piece look like it's custom covered in CF like the nicer Evo-R or RSW kits. I say spend the extra cash and do it right.

Do it right or dont do it at all..... I did it right and its sick! I didnt get it off Evo-r because it takes years for him to develop and ship out.. But search and you shall find..

I have a friend who did that cheezy CF kit in the Z and it looks so ugly I couldnt comment on it......

Now that the manufacturing glitches have been worked out, the wait won't be very long on the Evo-R kit. Jay can also get the RSW kit for anyone that wants it; it's a JDM kit and takes about 3-4 weeks to get, since they are made to order, so I think just about any way you go, there's going to be a bit of a wait, but nothing like it was for us in the initial GB group.

I tried.. If you would read their 50 page thread...... I posted my order in like page 9 post# 165....... and didnt get a kit after a year of waiting..... Thats pretty damn patient if you ask me........ So i went with CTD..... Its anyones choice, whether they wait or buy quick.... I dont care.. I got mines.. Get yours!!

Oh and that thread has 50 pages with how many requested kits, and how many kits sold?????? Get the numbers right people... I didnt bash anyone like I could have.... So lets leave it alone......

Default Dash kits

If your looking for dash kits, the EVO-R kits are nice, but also check out NISMOZ.COM they have a lot of variations.

Hey guys do the kits from nismoz.com just go on top of the existing dash? Or do they completely replace the dash that is there
