silly question, but how involved is the install....do you need to drop the transmission ?

honestly though, does it get involved or is it simple enough ?

Sorry....checked again and yes the details were sent same day, confirmation went to inbox and delivery details went to spam ,
So, you are saying you have been inundated with orders but I should have them by 12th February?
Look forward to getting them as the OP's look really good.
Thanks and Happy New Year.

I decided not to install the DB Carbon center pieces - they are brand new - outstanding quality; For me, with my CF steering wheel, and leather interior, it is too much CF.

If someone is interested, please DM me - I will sell them. US based.

One thing that I can’t stand about gloss black surfaces being used in a cars interior is the appearance of fingerprints. Also having only the one section around the cupholder finished in CF makes it look odd next to all of the gloss black elements. I ordered some other interior CF parts like the lightswitch housing, inner door panel, drive mode stalk, sport chrono/defrost vent and the extended paddle shifters. Also got a few smaller exterior pieces and will potentially get the sport design package rear wing in CF when it becomes available. Daniel quoted me $7450 which is even higher than the figures quoted in this thread. I still want to have a good mix of gloss black and CF inside and outside the car because you can reach a point where it becomes CF overload and the price total can start to pile up quickly. Hell I spent almost 10k on the first order but their quality and craftsmanship is second to none. Its much easier to add more CF down the road rather than ordering it all at once only to find it’s too much for the owners liking. I personally think more CF emphasizes the sports car look of the TTS.

Are the DB Carbon centre CF console pieces peel and stick instead of replacement items?

We do manufacture these as an add on cover set only, against our usual full replacement product range.

Background for we decided to go for that special way on those is that the OEM black glossy plates are not seperate exchangeable, they´re melted together with the lower supports and the rear piece is an full assembly only with the entire electric inside - an full exchange would not be reasonable.

With that way we took extra care to not damage the OEM parts - comes ready to install with an ultra thin 3M double sided tape, highest quality and don´t leave signs also after an long timeframe on the black glossy parts...

Any further questions, offers or advice needed - PM or email us directly.

Thanks a lot,
DB Carbon team
