It's a nice idea, but the carbon fiber look wouldnt look right with the rest of the black dashboad. It's worth a try tho if if you really like it. If you do end up getting it, post up pics of the final installaion.

I agree that the cf wouldnt look good. But maybe a black fiberglass dash with the gauge pod glassed in, painted black as well.

If you know how to work with fioberglass, I say go for it! Using that design as a template, you can build your own and even paint the entire dash another color if you wanted.

imo, it will only look good molded into the dash. hmm, i need two more spots to put gauges, so shit, ill make one and mold it into my glassed up dash!

just remember that this mod ISNT reversable because you HAVE to drill holes in your dash for it to get to the gauges. I think it would look good if you have a carbon fiber dash overlay maybe. I dunno I'm goin for the cluster bezels instead.

Idunno...that's thing I would like to see...it almost look like it covers all the way to A-pillar...so maybe you could run the lines just like you do for a pillar pod.
