Off topic but I'm glad I got the extended leather on the dash after seeing yours.
Good choice, I love the extended leather with contrasted stitching, especially on the dash as it is right there.

Thanks!! I wish I thought of the matte option, that would have been an even better look, I think.

Few more pics. Now that these are all clearcoated, we'll get them wetsanded and polished and shipped. I'll take a few more pics in proper lighting before they go out the door.

oCarbon, great prep and final products pic. But showing how to pop off and reinstall the pieces would be very helpful.

Looks really nice. I'd have to see it installed with high res pics (or in person ideally) before I would be able to decide as to whether it's too red.

Depends on which pieces you want. Email me at matt@ocarbon.com if you'd like a quote.

Another custom set shipped, this one in a silver reflective material. It's a standard 2x2 twill carbon fiber with threads of silver running through it. You can check out some installed pics of it here.

Why nobody offera PCM carbon finish. Porsche offers it in ghastly paint finish.. Or leather which would be nice of not wasted and contrasting with the carbon of the centre console.

Or even the "inside" of the centre console, why can't it be carbon finished ?

I don't know what a PCM finish is. If you could be more specific I can tell you if we can offer it.

We don't work with leather, we only manufacture real carbon fiber parts.

Not sure, it depends on which part you mean by "inside" but we can custom wrap almost anything as long as an original part can be ordered or provided. So far we've only done parts that customers have requested.

We can custom wrap almost anything as long as we can get our hands on core pieces. So it's safe to say, if the piece can be removed, we can probably make it.
