    well, a carbon fiber dash sounds kind of stupid to me, I mean, Carbon fiber only looks good when it's the entire interior, or at least a theme within the interior. Putting in just a CF dash is like getting one platinum tooth, or wearing a tux coat with jeans. Just doesn't seem like it would fit....to me.

          Hey, news flash, carbon fiber *usually* isn't for looks, its for weight savings.

                new flash, heh, smart ass...I know that it's for weight savings....over a heavy metal trunklid or hood or fender or such, but a plastic dash? Unless all the metal on your car has already been converted to CF, I'd stay away from spending 1300+ shipping on a CF dash that is mostly for looks.

                    Ok, let's get this straight...

                    Are you seriously entertaining the thought of buying one grapedrink?

                      Nope, Just wondering where I had saw them before. I might be planning on doing something along those lines but I don't know yet. :?

                        I would discourage the purchase of this dash. I can think of about fifteen hundred better ways to spend fifteen hundred.

                          Yah sort of, I remember watching some stupid movie or TV show. This guy was watching TV, and whoever was on the TV had women all around him and kept saying "I'd buy that for a dollar" in a really dirty voice.

                          I know, it's stupid.

                            Ever heard "Girls of Porn" by Mr. Bungle? Has the same exact thing in it.

                            PS: I don't care if I'm off-topic. This thread sucks.
