Would you give a summary of how you removed these pieces? Tools, pry points? I am thinking about covering these pieces, but not with cf as I have the matte cf already and probably can’t match it. Lowe’s has some glass film that might look good. I need to check on it.

no problem i’ll give it a try, to be honest it’s really easy. Just using standard car pry tools (purchased from amazon for a full kit for around €10/$12)



1) Start with removing the cup holder
2) all trim are push in fittings, so lift straight up or push down. Except for the front of the trim marked in blue. These slide in once you have lifted the back (see step below)
3) remove the trim around the cup holder starting with the yellow markings in the photo ( also the back which you can’t see in the picture). Then once these are lifted you can slide back to release the blue clips
4) now you can simply lift the three pieces I have covered in carbon wrap by lifting these up from the areas marked in orange/red.

hope this helps.

We're glad the Akrapovic exhaust arrived safe and sound. Have you pulled the system out of the box yet to see how beautiful it look? It can pass off as art really. Thank you for supporting us with your business!

I just pulled a similar move. I've been looking at Raptors for a couple of months and decided to get a fun winter duty vehicle.

Wow what a makeover! Good work! Looks amazing Cpm0827.

How are you finding the ride quality with 21/22” vs 20/21” Wheels?

what are your tire specs?

Interested to hear how the ride quality feels with the larger wheels plus the H&R springs setup.

HRE P104SC
fr 21x9 w/ 255/30-R21 Continental SC6
rr 22x12.5 w/ 335/25-R22 Continental SC6

Ride quality is not too bad compared to the stock set up but you will definitely feel a difference specially on rough surfaces.

I did both. Some places putting it behind would make it thick and might have created a slight elevation.
I didn't have an issue going to the edge though because I used 3M primer 94. Worked well.

Man, I like it. The CF really matches your seats well.

The Akrapovic exhaust installation manual actually has instructions covering these areas or close enough to it. Hope this helps.

$5 Harbor Freight moving blanket with contrast stitching that matches the interior.😜



Keeps the luggage from doing the interior harm on extended journeys. 👍

Hi Rick here. I really like the CF trim you did on the console. Can I ask where did you get those pieces?

Rick
