Custom carbon fiber mods and my Type-S

Three Wheelin'
Damn i always thought that much carbon fiber would look over done but DAMN! That looks hot! What did you use to wrap the parts?
I would do the gauge cluster also, i think it would finish out the look. And your plans for the A-Pillars? I am making a dual gauge cluster for mine... i am trying to figure out if i should wrap mine in CF or black leather.

thanks, to be honest, this was my first attempt at anything CF, as far as wrapping goes. before this i had zero experience.

OK....Jaime-the question on my mind is this....
......what's next? Are you done?
Plus, you might have gotten bored, but your car is extra special because now you're doing the REAL carbon fiber, not imitation!

i'll be installing this shortly in a S2K pillar gauge pod, and trust me the way i'll be installing it, it will look almost stock or "OEM"
here you go all you V1 owners its the VEI V1 remote display. not sure why no one here has ever got it. its pretty cool. it has no arrows or writing on it but indicators which is pretty much the same. i never owned a V1 so i'll learn it by site pretty easy. for me i'd sacrifice the writing and the arrows for something tight and clean like this. for all you with blue interior they offer it in blue lit led's
i was gonna do the same but with the V1 hidden display, was gonna hack-it up and use a sacrificial gauge, but i got this instead.

DING! DING! you got it! no reason to make real CF mold. i stated in my other thread these were only cosmetic. the car weighs 3,500lbs + and the parts weigh nothing. if the parts weighed hundreds of pounds id make 100% CF parts, but theres no point. maybe i should have Di-Noc'd the parts with "real" vinyl JK, not "knockin-it" no pun intended.....di-noc looks good i rocked it for a while. it just got boring to me. i wanted a challenge.

Thank you sir for the inspiration and sharing your work.

20-30 min tops, you will need a steering wheel puller tool. its a snap i could probably do it in 10 min if i tried.

the silver one looks great. its actually made of billet aluminum. it matches the silver trim and my other gauge trims well.

i knew what you were saying dude, its all good.
thanks Roger now stop saying it and start doing it!
lets us know how you like the viper system, i dont remember, is the viper fob still needed? or does the phone replace that?
thanks, it took a little practice. but i got better at it.
thanks. i still have more planned for the interior though
i like that you like thanks bud
they came out "ok" for my first time.
thanks man. i try to keep things clean and simple. modded but OEM'ish. try to make things look as if they were supposed to be there rather than just slap things on.
the engine bay was fun. just plan things out and think things through.but most important.....be original
hahaha! sorry! im the one with all the ok!!! lol! you can have tomato: ive had this for over a week now! i'll start working on the gauge pod and A-pillar next week. ive done this exact pod-pillar set up before in princelybugs shift light display came out good but....................i will take mine to the next level
thanks, but i do get bored so i always come up with new ones
sure no prob, i posts things up to motivate and inspire!.....and show off too but only a few here are real DIY'ers. i hope my work gets you guys to start modding more.
not sure whats going on with your sig/post weird?!
