Carbon Fiber Dash Kit

Does anyone know who carries a carbon fiber dash kit that will match the factory carbon fiber on a 2006?

I looked on ebay and it seemed that the carbon fiber kits I saw had the carbon fiber pattern going on an angle, where the factory is up and down. I also can't tell if the color would match the factory's color. Thats why I wanted to know if anyone had any experience with purchasing any of these kits and how it matched up with the factory color.

Thanks
Jared

No one as yet makes a dash kit to match Acuras oem carbon fiber. (its a very cheesey synthetic carbon fiber when compared to the real deal) if you have the wood trim your fine but for Carbon fiber interior owners you have to cover over the old stuff. Its not too bad of a solution and if you think about it by covering it up you can do anything. Colored carbon fiber, woodgrains, metal what ever you like.

I am curious about how the ring around the automatic shift fits over the dash kit. Has anyone installed in this area? Love to see a close up of it. Most of the kits include peices to go over the long metal side rails of the center console. I cant imagine that the cover very well and I would think you'd still see metal under the edges. I'd sugest what ever finish you select should coordinate with the metal trim and leave those off.

I'll post a list of the other kits availible online later

look on ebay or honda acura world.com. front console trim is $39 and rear is $79. looks great and matches perfect. don't get the after kit which covers the whole dash, it looks cheap.
