Never heard of or been there, what is it a place where they do "crazy tune-ups" I do all my work in my own garage.

who does it? people with porshce's and other high end automobiles, see there are actual companies that make CF parts for them, I've seen many of the same parts I've CF'ed and they are not cheap! $500 for paddles, $400 for steering wheel parts, $1,200+ for the seat parts!

Here is a rear view mirror and dome light housing combo in a Porsche 996. mine will look similar to this. Mirror alone is $600

Just a quick install iphone pics, sorry for the poor quality. I still need to clear coat these parts. Looks pretty good I think. It's been raining for a few days straight here in socal. These are garage pics I'll take more outside once the rain stops. What do you guys think?

That's exactly what I said! Only I said it like this

"hmmmmm I don't know about all that plastic."

Some people like plastic boring stock parts, the average Joe. Enthusiasts modify theirs with Di-Noc, or better yet REAL CF.

Carbon Fiber is not for everyone and that's cool.

Oh, ok you're right, I am crazy! Note: my mods and ideas suck, please don't do any of them or the result will be a car that looks like mine.

Ya those SV-1s look horrible on your car. You trade em to me for my curbed out stockers. Cmon bro, Im trying to do you a favor here. Let me make you car look better. Its gotta look the exact same as every other TL on the road in order to be cool bro.:gheywave:

Me thinks you should add more CF to the outside of the car once you're done with the inside.

UPDATE
holidays, new years, family and vacations took up alot of time these past couple of weeks. so these last few days i finished up my final pieces. you're wondering why its taking so long? i counted 18 parts I carbon fibered

i promise these will be the last teaser pics. next ones will be of the whole interior put back together, WITH ZERO DI-NOC!!!

again, its all in the small details! i make sure not to overlook any
