This is the description on their website. Like we talked about I'm not sure if that truly means this is a complete swap out for the PEM piece or not. Could be a language thing in translation.

I am pretty sure the picture I posted below CS is RHD. EVOR posted it in a thread called CF RHD pieces, before he started making his own. I am 99.9% sure that it is an overlay piece not a replacement. The 3M tape is a give away.

The CS piece could have been a bad install or a test fit. I will show them the pic after they reply to your questions.

Even have it in what I'll call a silver carbon fibre

I'll have to figure out which weave EVOR uses. I'd need to match to the window switch covers I got. I think it's 2x2.

At least we have options.

I want some carbon bits to the interior of my Z too

Definitely 2x2 twill.
The 1x1 doesn't look that great IMO.

I have the Curious Models one from RHDJapan. Decent fit, good quality, and you'll get some Japanese instructions too lol. Apologies for the poor nighttime shots

Thanks for posting that. Helps a lot.

Just to confirm that's a cover that goes over top of the existing one, not a complete replacement piece for it right? Did the cluster have to come out to put it on? I'm assuming it just sticks overtop and uses two sided tape but figured I better ask to be sure.

Looks great!

carlitos_370z · 03-16-2017, 07:29 AM

I like that one man! looks like they come from factory

Yes it's a cover, attached with double sided tape. Goes right on.

Thats not installed corretly, carbon part goes under the upper dash piece so needed to be pushed more in till its flush

cooltoy · 03-19-2017, 12:18 AM

That's what I figured.
