You can get carbon fiber sheets off of ebay, either get a self adhesive or a panel that has some thickness too it.

I simply took off the trim ring and cut the carbon fiber pc piece bigger than the hole it was covering and then drill through it where the mounting poles on the trim piece went and then slid it on and used the retainer clips to hold the panel on.

If that makes any since to you.

dansredz28 made a comment that we were ricers, I'm guessing because of the carbon fiber, so I thought I would see if he could beat someone he considered to be a ricer.

Thanks on the chairs comment.

Dude your killing me, Everything really looks good, the only thing I am a little questionable about is the heel plate, but I had to do something because the heel of my shoe was eating a hole into the carpet.

I've got an overlay kit on mine. They had all kinds of colors and this blue matched the car perfectly. I only wish I wouldn't have put the overlays on the radio and HVAC controls. Looks too busy in that area.

Blue is a nice color on the outside, but I'm not feeling that interior. Sorry.

Thanks for the compliments, however that is Steve's old SS's interior, not mine . But to answer a few questions I believe the carbon fiber interior was from a different manufacturer other then RK Sport. The seats are Full power heated / cooled Recaro seats.

This is the interior in my Z28.

HAHA, thanks. That blue is out of control. I tried to add mine in a way that would appear that it could be stock.
