PICS: carbon fiber interior trim finally installed !!!

[Fiddle]

Thanks to Matt @ oCarbon for incredible customer service, patience & support while I installed these things, and most importantly for the sick new CF trim pieces.

I got the 2 MMI pieces and shifter surround piece. The doors are still the OEM silver S-line trim. Taking apart the console for the shifter piece was a PITA, so if you want to DIY just have patience and its not too difficult.

VERY Nice!! The MMI and vent pieces are in my not so distant future!!!! I assume those pieces just pop off? Did you use a special tool like the trim removal kit ECS sells?

Could you PM me pricing if you don't mind? Or Matt@oCarbon, if you reading, could you send me pricing for finishing all the trim?

Looks really sharp, congrats.

The console was definitely time consuming, but the directions Matt provides on the site are really good.

Looks great.
How does the interior look with part CF part Alu?
