Default When Do we get carbon fiber dash "replacement" parts?

I thought Carbon fiber replacemement kits were supposed to be out.

I dont care for the stick on look and am anxious to buy a replacement set of true cf stuff.

I already know about pinnacle liquids dash painting, but this does not appeal to me.

Does anyone know when the real deal is coming out?

Yahoo link does not work but for $320 I find it hard to believe it is a complete replacement piece.

just keep in mind guys that the Japanese replacement piece will not fit on our cars due to the right hand drive...the guages are pointed the wrong way...may be other issues too.

That company sands down your current piece and paints it so that it appears to be carbon fiber. People who have it seem to be satisfied but my reservation is that it's a lot of money for a product that isn't true CF. My advice would be to wait 3 weeks until after sema and see what's released there. IPT seems to make excellent stuff and will be debuting their true CF dash there.

That website provides stick-on stuff. this thread is about finding cf replacement dash pieces.
Currently the only replacement product is pinnacle liquid, with them though, you still have to send in the pieces to get it done. And they just paint the pieces
