Carbon Fibre Trim Options

[GLK]

I'm thinking of making a few changes to the interior, now that the custom steering wheel is done, and want to start with carbon dipping some plastic bits.

Some time ago I was given contact details for Dan @ Carbon Performance, courtesy of a fellow member here, but it appears the business is no longer trading.

Would anyone care to recommend an alternative (ideally based on personal experience, and not crazy expensive)?

The people next door to MSL were doing this. Can't remember their name unfortunately (BSA?) but I can speak to Acid about it if you want?

 

[GLK]

Yes, thanks - that'll be great.

The guy you need to speak to is Shab, Tel: 07581 345855

I know they did some mirrors for Bruno (C36fan on here) but no idea about anything else, like prices.

Hope it works out.

 

[GLK]

Great, thanks - I'll give him a call tomorrow

Would the heat from the engine affect the carbon dip ?

I had the engine covers along with airfilter boxes dipped on my Jag. No broblems at all.

 

[GLK]

Out of interest what sort of cost was this, ball park.

 

[kasper]

total cost was £140

I'm talking to Stewart, getting parts ready ...

Need to decide on the background colour and carbon pattern / colour - what I thought just simple dark grey or black is, apparently, not how it works.

Not a single straight line. Is this how it's supposed to be?

 

[kasper]

yes this was the carbon design I picked lots of different carbon designs available colours are by choice
