Default The RKSport Carbon Fiber kit.....here we go...

Allright, had alot of requests for pics once this was installed, and it has been a total of 3 months for all the pieces to get here...more on that later......lets get to some pics, but, missing are the pics of the air conditioner bezels, they came out to blurry, but they are just as nice as all the other pieces

Radio Bezel........


Driver side door....


Speedometer Bezel....


Passenger side door....


Door sill, a better pic of them...


a little background....the kit is normaly $600, I got it on sale for $475, still might be on sale....it's made in Italy, it's glued on to existing parts via a funky yellow German(?) glue, try not to sniff it... .......what I have been waiting on, and what now is something that I'm resolving with RK was the center console piece, it's in the pic, but the problem is......it's GOLDEN in color.. , we are working out a solution as I type.....it came from a different batch that obviously.....is a different mix of the epoxy.....oh well, it's still a great kit for those that get it, and the customer service is exellent, at least it is for me.....now the pic.....

Console.....

VERY NICE! any pics a little further away? Its kind of too close.

It would nice if we could look at some of the pieces here and there in one pic.

I think this is the best carbon fiber interior I have seen ever. Good job.

Hope you didnt mind waiting. I almost ran insane when I had to wait a month to get my corsa exhausts :p

Thanks for the compliments......it looks much better than stock hands down......now I just need to get the console piece replaced....

02-TAWS6, I'll try to get the "far" shots for ya....I took them up close for the detail and every other pic I've seen has been from far away, so I guess I went overboard in the "close" shots, sorry...

WOW Chris.. looks as good as my old "real" coated CF kits.. Very nice and a lot cheaper.

Cant even tell its glued on.. MUCH MUCH better than those flat stick on kits.. Good work man!

IF YOU REMOVE IT, IS THERE ANY EVIDENCE THAT IT WAS THERE?

Oops..sorry about the caps. I am wondering in case I plan on removing it when I sell the car.

The funny thing is that I've seen Pro 5.0 cars with real CF interiors and they don't look nearly that good!

Thanks Steve, it just sucks about the center console, oh well, working on the fix now.....

ILUVLS1S, the pieces are glued to the stock piece, so I can't tell you if they can come off at all, I'm going to find out though if I have to take off the center console for exchange......that should be fun...

Unit, thats a testament to the kit then, because it looks better in person....thanks.

Call RKSport on the 1-800 number, ask for Cyrus and tell him you want the Carbon Fiber kit for the Camaro (auto or manual) for the sale price of $475.....just that easy....oh, and thanks....I like it!....

I've got the same RKsport CF kit and I am very happy with it. I get tons of compliments on it. Waited a while for it but it was worth the wait. Better order it now so you have it in time for next spring

can u just get certain pieces? some of my parts are painted and adding the carbon fiber to some of the other pieces would look very good.
