<----- HATES SHINEY PLASTIC INTERIOR PIECES

But anyways.. just an FYI the matte finish cuts down on glare. You will see all your shiney pieces in a reflection in the windows when driving on a sunny day

You need some Autovation Aluminum Pedals to complement it.

You know, I normally hate painted interiors (I think it looks cheap most of the time) but yours is so well done. The carbon fiber only makes it look better. You did a damn good job, one of the best interiors on the board IMO.
