ive seen plenty of full carbon COVERED parts in a civic...

do these high end cars you speak of have carbon overlay parts or are they made entirely of carbon fiber?

the good about gloss is you can always make it matte again with fine sand paper.

These are actually wrapped pieces around the OEM plastic. Actually FERRARI does the exact same thing on their steering wheel, as do we but charge 5000 for the wheels SAME WITH PORSCHE... since you seem to be more knowledgeable about there parts than me

This isnt some double sided tape job THATS OVERLAY. This is hand wrapped carbon fiber with resin and clear coat.

I liked the matte. Better fit with the rest of the interior, but the whole thing is great either way.

I said it when you originally got your matte back in the day, and I stand by my comment after seeing the new setup. Gloss looks awesome!

A civic has real carbon fiber battery covers and brake covers??




A civic has a carbon fiber roof too huh.. Ive seen for a fact way more EXOTIC cars and BMW m's with a roof similar to this. But yet, painting a roof black or overlaying it with black vinyl is more acceptable than the supposed civic? lol prove me wrong.


Heres a porsche interior NOT THE FULL CARBON FIBER INTERIOR but just a small package they offer EXACT SAME PROCESS AS OURS. Again this isnt a double sided dash kit you order off ebay... This is real carbon fiber with layers of resin and sanding and clear coat. overlay is so offenses considering vinyl roof, doubled side kits are more common overlays

Matte. It looked more low key and less in your face.

i think matte and gloss look nice bro!! i love things always shiny so i go with gloss...

on a side not some guy here told me "o hey man nice interior where did you get your overlays? ebay right? how much did it cost? 200 right?"

i was soooooo irritated beyond belief.... i didnt even wanna explain to that retard because he probably woulda said it was a waste of money.....
