Carbon Fiber Interior Parts

Has anyone used the carbon fiber interior parts from Direct Car Trim?

I'm curious how it compares to OEM stuff.
Thanks.

I noticed it does not have the parts for the passenger airbag, I think that will look funny.

It looks like its an add on to your existing trim; my experience with such kits is that it looks cheap, but since I have no experience with Direct Car Trim, I can't comment further. It is quite a lot cheaper than the OE CF kit.

There's no comparison. These are just thick stickers w/ CF pattern.

The factory parts are just a bunch of pieces stuck onto the original black dash pieces. Not exactly impressive.

Marcus Buehler makes excellent CF interior parts for 993s. Many Rennlisters use him with great success. Try a search over there, and I'll look for his email today.
