After searching I found few pics of C.F. factory interiors. Are they that rare on 993s? Was it an "all-or-nothing" deal from the factory, or could you pick and choose how much C.F. was used and where? Please post pics. Thanks.

I'd like to know the answer to that one as well. I've got a chance to
pick up a full dash C.F. factory kit. I've been doing some searches but
can't find the answer to a question I've got about removing the
Speedometer without removing the steering wheel. Can it be done (I have
the computer option). I'd be interested in hearing from anyone whose done this install.

You can remove the speedo if you remove the plastic housing between the steering wheel and dash. I think there are two or four screws. Once you have that removed the speedo comes right out

If anyone is aware of a source for the factory carbon fiber kit I'd really appreciate the referral; I'm looking for a kit for my car and not getting any good news on availability from either Gert or Suncoast.
Thanks much,
Rick

The wheel is sold by AJ USA and FVD, comes in different colors and finishes. I love it! Slightly smaller diameter and thicker rim than the stock wheel. The small triangular buttons are for the horn (which I changed to the French horn style).

John, that wheel does look great. I'm not a fan of the 4-spoke wheels, just may have to change mine. Randy, I've taken the plastic covers off
and still can't get the speedometer to come all the way out. When I change to the carbon fiber dash I'll have to come up with some way to
get it out...
Here's what's in my car now. The previous owner went crazy with the aluminum look. I've got receipts for nearly 1400.00 in pieces. I'm going to sell the aluminum dash once I replace it with the carbon fiber if anyone's interested:

Guys,
I have received an email/price list from a guy in Germany who claims that he is the supplier of the original CF parts for Porsche & FVD. Prices are very good compared to Porsche & FVD. I just don't know if I like the CF look or not. Also I don't know if I am going to sell my car. If anybody is interested I will contact the person and get further information.
I do not have any affiliation with this person.
