More cf interior pics

Updated night-time pics with cf door handles, ashtray and some more pieces.
The cf weave looks so much better in reality than pics.
The pod will be installed next week, together with some other goodies.

Pod installed!

Today I installed the pod, installation was not so easy but fitment was perfect, I am very happy with the result! Especially at night the gauges look soooo great reflecting on the carbon fiber, I cannot get my eyes off, it's like looking at a hot chick! . I should get some camera to get better pictures but I have spent all my salary by now he he
Hope you like it, I may try to make a video with gauges and AP exhaust sound when I have some time.

I will e-mail my friend in Japan and ask him if he can get another one or if he knows a place where you could buy this.

FYI for those interested in the dash kit. They make a more full kit that even includes the back seat, steering wheel controls, dome and courtesy lights, plastic sunroof strip, etc. Maybe you've got it all I couldnt tell.

I got the full kit with all those pieces you mention but I didn't want to use all of them. If I remember right I payed around 160-170 euros.

Thanks for all the comments, as I told before that gauge pod is probably not available anymore. I payed 200 euros including p & p from Japan.

And here is a daylight pic, damn, I don't have a very steady hand.

so i just got my kit and put it in. It is more silver than regular CF. I rushed and installed it, but now i have mixed emotions since it doesnt completely match all the other CF i have that is darker grayish blackish, er uh carbon!

Is yours silverish too? hard to tell in pic.
