They match the b-pillar carbon fiber pretty well.

are those carbon fiber sides vented??? I am sure it gets pretty hot down there in texas land? otherwise it looks pretty kickass!!!

AlexCisneros 05-19-2004 09:55 AM

they don't look vented :eek:

leegina 05-19-2004 09:57 AM

I am only trying them on for size but have not noticed any difference in temps or anything negative. But it has not been too hot here yet (88) so time will tell but if I do notice an increase in temps because of them they will be trash!

Hey leegina, what wheel / Tire combo do you have?

mysql101 05-19-2004 10:03 AM

Your wheels kick ass.

About the eyelids... well, I'm not a fan of body hair being added to cars.

leegina 05-19-2004 10:11 AM

Thanks
Wayne

Because it was on some pics of my 89 944 Turbo (S) that I sold and I was taking pictures of the Porsche to sell and had to shoot some pics of my other baby. Not euro spoiler it is the R-magic Rear lip spoiler.

mysql101 05-19-2004 04:09 PM

Interesting. I had a 87 944S.

mikeb 05-19-2004 05:09 PM

what eyelids are those

did you custom make these pieces??

leegina 05-19-2004 05:18 PM

Yes. And also I just got the same carbon fiber kit you ordered on ebay. The quality is good but the only problem that I have with the kit is that the silver rings over the airvents do not actually cover the silver part but actually circles the dash part that is rough. Hopefully you can understand what I mean. I would of thought that it would cover the silver but it rides on the outside and is basically elevated because of the dash. Their is more pieces than I expected like for instance the rear door has some pieces and the surround where the maplights and eye glass holder has a solid piece like the radio surround. Probably will not use the whole kit because it might be overkill but I will see.

mikeb 05-19-2004 06:25 PM

cool

how long did it take to get the dash kit
got any install pics

leegina 05-19-2004 09:36 PM

ordered it on the 7th and got it today. be very careful around the radio those holes for the buttons are tight and you tend to glue on to them and cannot operate the functions because they are all stuck kinda like if they were always on and wont respond to any input. I personally think they are to tight and their is no real way of avoiding this because I was very careful. It turned out nice and I ended up going carbon crazy and almost using the whole kit. The onyl pieces I did not use was the maplights piece. I will take some pics tomorrow because I am too tired.

mikeb 05-20-2004 01:04 AM

thank you ^^

mikeb 05-20-2004 07:57 PM

I'm dying to see that dash kit pics

leegina seems like you love the carbon fiber look. not saying theres anything wrong with it but seems like you want carbon fiber everything. haha whateva floats your boat! rock on

leegina 05-25-2004 12:11 AM

Yeah I thought the same thing. I do love the carbon fiber look but mainly because I want to kinda seperate my car from the next and I really cannot put on a bodykit that I want because I feel that I am too low.
