I have used some of his work and I am very **** with my cars. His quality is very good. Anything is possible as long as there is a mold. I will tell him to purchase original turbo s duct at sunset porsche as long as there is enough interest. Minimum order is at least 20 sets of air ducts.

Curvelover: It is possible to make those I might have an extra stock center console for molding but I dont have the rest. I will send him my console and show some photos when done. btw do you know how much Marcus sells these pieces for? That way I can tell him to match the price or do a little better.

I appreciate the prompt response! Marcus B's door sills are 195€ (~$260 USD) with logo; parking brake tray 125€ (~166$ USD); rear cubby - 120€ (~$160 USD); switch console 180€ (~$240 USD). That's per MD11pilot's posting of Marcus B's price list. Source document: Any carbon fiber interior pics?. Kudos to Andreas for his translation. It's my impression Marcus gives a 15% Rennlist discount.

atan - Any chance of getting the full CF interior made up? With the Euro/ Dollar still being unfavorable on the dollar side, it might be nice to have a US source.

In NO way is this anything against Marcus! I had ordered a full CF interior from him in 2006 (which I sold prior to installation) and was VERY happy with the final products, service, shipping, etc.

If there was enough group interest, we could all probably find a way to get together and get pieces from all the race-conversion projects to him from which to mold the CF.

Hi Russ,

Anything is possible as long as I get a mold and enough interest.

Thanks

Here are some prices I was given for the interior parts:

Door inserts - $1000/pair
Complete dash and instrument surround - $1850
Handbrake tray - $400
Storage tray - $400
Switch console/2 pieces - $300
Total - $3950 I really want a carbon fiber interior but this just seems way too high to me. Thoughts?

I know a guy who spent $10k plus on the OEM CF interior. Nuts! I prefer all black leather, not a fan of the CF at all. (edit - unless it is actually used for weight reduction and not ricer-inspired bling )

How would you feel if the whole interior, minus the dash was in the $400-600 range?
