Yes I received it from Pete on Tuesday, just got around to installing this morning. It looks better in person, makes the classy white look classsssieeee! This way I can do some suttle black graphics or even carbon fiber racing stripes.

I believe Pete will give me a reward for being the first Real Carbon Fiber install... What do you think Pete??

The install is very simple. I cleaned the dash install surfaces with alcohol 4-5 times. I then laid out each piece seperating left to right sides and became familiar with where they went. I laid them in place without removing the backing to see exact placement. I first peeled the backing on my first piece, without making finger contact with the adhesive side, while I had my wife apply the contact adhesive promoter to ONLY the area I was getting ready to install. The adhesive promoter is a thin small sponge saturated with a small amount of liquid, so after opening apply adhesive promoter quickly and place back into the pouch and put a paper clamp to keep from evaporating. I determined prior what I thought was the best method for install, then I carefully laid into place lightly tacking 1-2 points then pressing down firmly. I then used a hair dryer for about 4 seconds and my wife pressed it all down while I prepared to install the next piece. The reason I had her apply the adhesive promoter, it was just much quicker than doing it myself and replacing the sponge and closing the pouch.

I am pretty meticulous with my toys as you can probably tell...

The black/grey carbon fibre looks extremely sharp on your Spyder. A good choice.

WOW, That looks great. I love carbon fiber. Would love to do all of my bodywork in real carbon, but for now all I have found is to wrap it. Might just go that way so it matches the Carbon Busa.

Chazzy, you kicked it up a notch, BAM! I love it and now I'm antsy waiting for mine to come in. I'm glad that you posted the idea of a second hand. Great idea. I'll have my wife do the same. Pete says ours will be in next week. There's been a lot of response, so I'm going to start another group buy for those that are looking for a really cheap and cool looking dash.

Take care my man!:thumbup:
