OEM Carbon Fiber Dash Kit

I just got my carbon fiber dash kit and man does it look sweet. Not one defect in the carbon fiber what so ever. Well worth the money. Will post pics later

Was this posted before the install? I had trouble getting my center piece to stick on the center console near the radio.

question: isn't just a carbon fiber weave overlayed something?

its not like "real" carbon fiber that we are used to seeing on hoods/trunks?

Use an acohol prep pad to clean the area before placing the 3m tape. This removes any wax or oils so it will stick better.

I think I used the armor all cleaning wipes to clean the console prior to installing the sticky piece. CF or not it looks good on the door handles and radio bezel

you won't beable to get just the center counsol from Honda, you'll have to buy the whole thing. Might be lucky to find just the counsol in the classified section or this forum or some others. I also need just the center part
