I have solved the problem with Jay

$500 is cheap for a carbon dash kit. you get what you pay for. if you check other sites. they cost 3x as much and you have to send in your core or else they charge extra.

That isn't quality; that's crap! The CF looks paper thin man!!!

If I was in your shoes, I wouldn't even install that. Throw it on Ebay and hope for the best.

yeah thats a pretty shitty weave but like they all said, that is dirt cheap for a full cf kit. IMO all that stuff looks like garbage and usually fades/cracks eventually.

i also have had problems with orders from them. ive gotten a few different peices that didnt fit at all, sent them back, waited for months to get replacements. finally got the replacements and they still didnt fit. ended up returning them and getting my money back. the whole process took months and the communication was horrible.

What can i say about EVO-R....This proves that his CF interior kits are GARBAGE. Your not the first one who has had problems with Jay. His business practice has really gone to shiet hole as far as i am concern. We have already suggested to ban him from this site, and i seriously hope that our Mods would look pass his donations and do it for our best interest. By the way, to the OP, you can find alternatives as well. Visionary racing has RSW CF interior kits that is top notch. Even though it is about $200 more, but RSW CF are top quality and fitment is guaranteed. https://my350z.com/forum/questionable-posts/338832-carbon-fiber-interior-parts-from-rsw-japan.html
