Thanks for the pic. I am not a computer wiz. Could not figure out how to get a photo up to save everybody the trouble of hitting a link. The photos were taken in bright harsh light which hides how the dash is wrapped 3D. Not REAL CF just a print. Thanks again


Just got up a new page. Well actually, all I did was add a few links to make it easier to learn about what we do. Enjoy

 

Looks very good. I would have thought it was real CF.

 

It's a great look. Looks real enough if done right. I think real would be alot more money though.

 

i must agree, very nice dude

 

what did you say the price is for the kit?

they have a real carbon fiber overlay, probably cheaper to. htey also do real and simulated wood, and a simulated carbonfiber to, also different color carbon fiber to.

 

Yes I am quite familiar with B&I auto trim. Their "real" carbon fiber is the same as what we use, and most other dash kit companies use, for the 'FLAT KITS' like the Edash brushed aluminum kit mentioned elsewhere. It is cheaper in that form. I was speaking about Real MOLDED carbon Fiber. It has not been done by anyone that I am aware of. If you know of one post it. Here Or anywhere. I know what it would cost to do the right way, and it is a little to cost prohibitive. Our dash is a sensible compromise. It's all a matter of taste.

 

IPT Is in the process of a complete replacement dash in carbon fiber

Autoclaved and vacum packed if you would like to stay tuned with this sign up at team IPT

I have seen IPT's stuff at SEMA. Really nice. They seem to have a method of wrapping the carbon fiber around very sharp contours without losing details. The weave did not lose orientation. The stuff I saw was first class, had very few, barely noticable even to a trained eye(like mine) air bubbles(common with other manufacturers) and a hard high gloss finish. They accomplish what others say can't be done. If these guys do it, it will look awesome. IMHO

 

Very cool, I like the look of this dash a LOT. I'm a go before show kinda person though, so, as much as I like them the go parts are going to take my money first.

 

found this site that does carbon fiber interior. alot more expensive than the stick on dash kit but it looks way way better.



goto http://www.elegantwooddesign.com/350zphoto.htm for bigger pics.

 

man, that looks sweet.... the Z should have came like that... too bad it cost so much....

 

Like Dave said, a little pricey though!!

 

yea its way over priced. does anyone know how to do the same process this company does? maybe even cheaper

 

Yup, you can get it cheaper! Call Spectrum in San Diego, No, Wait uh they went out of busines 6 mo. ago. They were real cheap. Or try Deco Tech in Wisconson. They would do it CHEAP, I mean like around $400.00. But no painted gauges. That's extra. Oops, found out they went out of business too.
Guys in this business come and go. I am not high priced. I am fair priced, for the work involved. This will NOT make me rich. I merely try to make enough to keep my doors open. I stay away from companies selling something CHEAP. Everyone knows the value of thier product. I am not trying to sell everyone. But everyone I sell will be happy and I will be here tomorow (Lord Willing) to back up my product if needed. They will get value and personal attention. There is a great deal of labor and skill involved in each of these sets. They do not satisfy everybody, which is why when I heard IPT will do a replacement CF dash I was alll for it. I have seen what they do. It will probably look better than mine no doubt. It may be more expensive too. Or it may be less. I dunno. Whatever floats ur boat.

 

Very cool come back.

 

what if I wanted just a few CF accents,like instead of the painted parts on the guages, make those CF????

 

Like the jingle goes- have it your way. I don't mind. painting the gauges is cheaper - oops- make that less expensive. Adding the carbon fiber is an additional operation, so it costs more. The gauges still have to be detached from the main dash panel, and done separately. Figure an additional $30.00.

 

I love that dash kit. That's how I imagined my dash kit inside the car.
