Last emblem in commemoration of my 2 visits to the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1969 and 1970; the latter more memorable somehow...

Default DB Carbon Fiber

Installed the Carbon Fiber console and can report that it's PERFECT. The quality of workmanship is exquisite. Second to none!

Shout-out to Daniel for his passion to create CF options for our Porsches.

Check it out... cover that glossy crapola.


Matches OEM CF and aligns perfect. Photo lighting distorts the match.

that’s flipping awesome!!! How much money for this and can you walk us through the installation? Do you have to take out the whole center console?

Order soon as they run out of stock often. Mine due in later this month and I ordered 4-6 weeks ago:

https://shop.db-carbon-interieur.de/...ucts/1780-0001



Install:


Also, in addition to not looking as cheap as the black plastic, they don't smudge/scratch nearly as easy AND don't blind you with sun glare as they are matte finish. Total win!

How do you install these parts? Do they actually replace the gloss black parts or do they tape onto the gloss black parts? I can’t tell from their website pictures.

No... The CF pieces lay on top of the shiny plastic. Takes a steady hand to align it correctly. Once it's down it can't be moved. I discovered an easier way to align the parts by sliping a thin credit card in the crease between the vertical side strips and the larger bottom cover.

Insert CC here^
It acts like a guide to start the process. Angle and hold he top edge of the large part tight against the CC and when correct lower the bottom. Start with the large piece and the verticals will just fall into place. Good lighting is a must.
Then practice the routine 10 times.

Sorry I didn't take pics of it. I'm sure someone will. I was very concerned that it would look amateurish but this OCD guy is totally happy.

Watch the video I attached to see the adhesive strips.

Great tips Jeff; credit card idea is brilliant. While I have you, where did you get the emblem just aft of the shifter? I think it looks great.

Still waiting for my DB carbon kit. Talked the guys last week and they will be restocked this month!! I told them no hurry since I'm still waiting for the dealer to install a new motor. LOL

Y'all may find this distasteful, but the Porsche crest fills in some of the glossy plastic. I disassembled a keychain that my SA gave me and attached it with 1 tiny drop of hot glue which an be removed. Coulda been a $300. option HaHa

OK.. so I'm an attention *****
