FWIW, the dash fascia comes off pretty easily. A couple of torx screws and tugs, and voila! It's like an advanced Lego set!

I have the real thing, not the stick on stuff. See

If you want to know if it looks good, it transforms the whole interior.

Get the JCW kit for the dash. It has all the panels like the MC40. $1500.00 I believe.
Call Classic.

I love CF but I'm having a problem with $1500 for interior decoration. I could buy some cool furniture for my dining room with that...hmmmm

sid-
yah, i suppose.
cWade- cool. it looks good imho and won't break the bank. Im sure
you already know, but use a heat gun to heat up the CF before you apply
so that it will contour to the curvature.
my interior is anthrasite so
it goes well with CF...not so much contrast applying over silver interior.

$800... damn, for that price you might as well have gotten the real thing. Not to mention it doesn't look like CF...
