For 2005 MT 350z

Well,.... FINALLY my CF 13 piece interior kit came in yesterday, after all the snags and speed bumps I ran into dealing with Jay@Evo-R. I think I would have felt better if it was made in Japan. But its here so here we go...






Once screwed back in the silver piece pops back in with a little force.
Note: most of the Bigger pieces I hade to apply the 3m double sided molding tape.
The piece you see aove for the shifter I had re-tape and fit 3 times to try to get it lined up and as flush as possible. in the end,... I was only able to achieve 85% perfect fit with this piece.
It isn't a must but I also uscrewed the screws underneath to remove the boot and clean it



The next piece I tape preped for the upper mpst part of the center console for gauge pods and storage.



Next were arm rest door pieces which has alredy been explained but I did throw in a few extra pix for better insight. Mainly on the passenger side. Once unscrewed all I had to do was pop out the door handle.

here is a pic of the cut once it was as flush as I could get it.


I realighned it twice and this is the best the piece would allow me

 

once I the screws were screwed back in the silver piece pops back in with a little force.


Next were the gauge pods which I didnt have to any issues with the top pieces of the housing. the bottom pieces were however more of a pain in the a$$ manuvering into the perfect position.

 

Any overall shots?

 

Next was the storage lid cover which started to pissin$g me off after several attempt to line it up. I had to re apply the 3m double sided molding 3 times. I'll show yo why too.


This part on the upper left hand corner of the piece wasn't cut right and had a flaring to it that wouldn't allow the lid to lift. in the end I HAD to shave it down with an exacto blade. I press the release button on the lid and I still have to maually assist it up.

 

who the hell measures these pieces for fitment a 2nd grader?

 

Next was upper trim piece that surrounds the gauge pods and storage area that I tape preped.


It went on but I was still faced with areas the piece would not allow me line up

 

this part on the lower end of the shifter piece is what I'm still trying to solve. see pix to understand...

 

heres the overall shot which doesn't look bad as a poto, but in person I'm able to see it.

 

Hmm...

 

The last thing I won't fail to mention the vendor himself.
I WILL NEVER do buisness again with this guy.
The vendor has the WORST communication I have ever encountered. I would NEVER recommend buying anything from Jay. Some have said they didn't have a problem with him replying, I on the contrary did. I made the purchase july 9th, the guy barley responded to any of my emails, doesn't return calls, and finally after a couple of weeks tells me not in stock and only gets back to you when you start publically asking WTF on the forums.Guy ask me if I wanted a refund, say yes, This guy tells me he'll do it "tonight", almost 2 weeks later I'm still wondering WTF?, Guy tells me that he has it in stock "do I still want the kit"? I say yes, and dont see any tracking # on my paypal for almost a week.
unfortunatley I didnt catch it before I made the purchase, but whats done is done.
Theres **** on Jay on RX-7 and 8 forums I wished I would have seen.
But it is what it is....

 

Hey bro, not to **** on you-- but my OCD would drive me crazy with all of those tiny mis-alignments and ill-fitting pieces, especially if I paid good money for a kit like that. I would probably end up ripping it all out. Geeze...

 

dont try and rip it out, the "cheapness" will just bend and brake never to be used again, try and get a refund, my center console door hits to on that same corner.evo-r sucks

 

Still looks good man..

 

nice CF pieces!

 

 

worst 500 i ever spent

 

I am sorry bro, but for 500 bucks those should be direct replacements and not some tape-it-on pieces. You could have wrapped it and gotten a way better look. Im sorry =(

 

Really wish this wasn't stick on crap epically for the price Don Nygen Wraps this stuff for half the cost!

 

yea dude im sorry too. i shouldnt have been a dumbass. i thought for that much it was the real deal.. when i received it i was like o well.. i had just got back from afghanistan. money didnt matter to me at that point in my life.. now im kicking myself in the ***

 

happens with most after market pieces, i get stuff like this all the time coming into my shop. theres a lot of things we can fix and stuff like that it is what it is. good luck man
