Carbon Fiber and Interior Anyone know who makes a better Carbon Fiber kit than RK Sport? I've seen their's and wasn't all that impressed. Also, anyone know where to find a dash kit to rearrange the a/c and overall look of the dash? Or would it be better to go local on that one? Any help you guys can give me would be great.

Re: Carbon Fiber and Interior this website, techthority.com for porsches has got to be the most flawless carbon fiber I've ever seen..... it's worth someone giving them a call to see if they'll cover the trim pieces from a Camaro or Trans-Am. I think it would be worth finding out for us that want carbon fiber interiors....

Why don't they make the molded kit for the Firebird? I'd be tickled to death with the kit Steve has if it was for the Firebird.

RK sport is now making the molded carbon fiber kit again. I assume it is very similar to the one you have from them.

Re: Carbon Fiber and Interior ssg-z28, is exotic wood dash giving you "real" carbon fiber in red, or just the carbon look? just curious. I've seen some "coated" pieces by them and it looked really good, but I don't think it was real carbon. Just wondering..... I found a website that does real carbon fiber overlay:

also, please tell me how much exotic wood dash is gonna charge you, if you don't mind me asking.....

Re: Carbon Fiber and Interior exotic wood dash does a faux CF not the real stuff but it look VERY nice and I have it in my engine bay.. most people dont know the difference 
The porsche place sent one guy a picture example of thier work (a kit they did on a camaro) and it was a pic of MY CAR!!
Posers.. lol.. they wanted $3k for a kit and mine cost $700 from RK.. the new RK kit sounds nice but I havent seen it yet.. they need to make a firebird kit

Re: Carbon Fiber and Interior Some info on the RK Sport kit...

Steve, when you ordered your kit, were they actually replacement parts? Or was it how this guy describes it?

I would say 95% of the people that see my engine parts belive it to be real CF.. so isnt that it looks good whats important? Not like your saving weight or making the part stronger.

Re: Carbon Fiber and Interior I also have the RKsport kit comming in as well.......I went with the Fiberglast kit at first, but I can tell you from experience that although carbon fiber is easy to cut and lay, it is quite messy....imagine about 9oz of syurp that you have to spread over pieces, thats what the epoxy is like.....and all I did was the door sills and fuse covers, flat surfaces, I don't see how they do compound curves unless they have a mold....turned out okay, but not perfect like we all want....I'll post pics when I get the kit and some of the "homemade" stuff too.....
