    Hmmm, I have some extra parts laying around, spoiler, entire dash bezel, and some other misc stuff. I also have a ton of switch blanks and switches. Do you need any parts? We might be able to work out a deal. I am thinking a CF dash bezel would be neat, as well as all the switches. Seems kind of boring, might have to peruse the patterns and find something a bit more unique. You get the idea though. Let me know if you need anything, I can even get the entire center console, door panels, just about all the interior.

    How about a yellow carbon fiber? Perhaps a yellow diamond deck? Not sure how I feel about that much yellow inside, but who knows.

    Only reservation I would have about adding CF bits to the interior is that it might be hard to match the factory faux-CF pattern. Not a big deal for the bezel, but other parts of the dash (primarily the edges) will meet up close enough to the door to potentially create an odd contrast...

    Can be done. Once I do my whole truck from interior to exterior I will better understand how much material needed for each piece to price. Gonna give this site best pricing around. I am doing full cladding, roof rack "when done" rear spoiler and hood insert with scoop, and full interior like this. Then the black on outside will be painted Military flat tan. The base coat under pattern will be the flat tan so it will blend into it to match rest of truck

    I have another good one for you to do when you are ready....I want to do my Injen intake in red CF to match the gas cap, all I need is the go ahead to send you funding and some packages...lol. I have a corporate UPS acount, so I can do prepaid return shipping to save you some time and $$$.
    I think the cladding screws in CF red would be sweet as well. Since my proton is already accented in red, it will fit right in.

    Yes. The only thing would be the texture would be alittle less cause basecoat plus pattern plus top coat, but can use a textured top coat so not smooth.
