I bought the C panel second hand from a guy on SELOC. I believe it came from the carbon fibre company in Hong Kong.
I still need the door cards and speaker covers (but not speaker covers, just the blank ones).

When i did the 260 upgrade i got a quote for the factory carbon dash, veritcle bits leading to & including the sill covers (for the late 08/current black dial dash). All in the non-laquered finish.
The price? A cool �8,000+ excluding fitting
Needless to say my interior is still as it left the production line

No it’s ok thanks Wes I’m going carbon but going to paint it RED! [/quote]
Pimp that ride
Going to get the speaker cover bits from LM coarse in Italy and wait for the dash top from hong kong
Bit bored, bit hungover, one thing led to another…
Jonny … on the subject of painting c/f …
How good would a light mist coat of colour followed by clear laquer look ??
Keep the weave on show but slightly colour it …
You read my mind mate, I’m going to try and paint what’s there but if I don’t like it go down that very route but I’m going to buy some Eliseshop Sill covers anyway and test the water.
Saw a Noble at Autosport with the very same in Blue…totally Rocked!
Carbon speaker covers seem to be an issue, LM Coarse only do LHD ones and I think the Elise shop stuff is the same, and state only LHD, I have dropped them an email to ask, be odd to have the dash top and sills without them!
All spraying equipment here if ever you want to paint some small panels or experiment etc …
Very welcome to use it …
Thanks Jonny, got it sorted buddy lol gone with piano black (bottled the red :whistle: )
looking good John, Ill be putting my doors on in the next day or so
I wrapped the dash in Nexus CF Vinyl after sealing, priming and painting not to mention filling in a few bolt holes and swapped the binnacle for a direct and easy replacement from LM Corse, not a cover.
I sent my centre AC control, top facia and speaker jobbies to the paint shop for a piano black finish.
Next week I’ll be fitting CF side sills in time for MLOC at Chatsworth, over winter a CF centre tunnel and a new gas extinguisher (Pesky lol)… I took the car out as the sun was coming down and only minor glare which tbh is minor because I sit so low. And errr no camera, tis gone
So next onto the front clam, oh and the intake and air filter arrives next month…YAYHAY!
That looks great
Fantastic, Jonny
Deffo looking good.
Wow!
Awesome stuff JF
Can’t wait to see it for real at Chatsworth, not long to go now…
That looks fantastic Jonny. However, is the piano black finish not reflecting too much in the windscreen ?
Yes it does but I’m only picking up the vents which have always been there, a longer ride out will tell for sure any draw backs with reflection or glare…
The pictures don’t do it justice and as Gav pointed out to me it really complements the doors. BUT the weave is slightly wonky not to bad, and the filler slightly shows where the bolt holding the screen used to be but I’m being picky, stuff to redo which is easy enough at a later date if it really bugs me.
Are you gonna be fitting bigger mirrors now so you can see all of us SC boys coming before we whizz past???
