Anyone familiar with this dash?

I'm considering buying one to replace my ratty dash. Anyone familiar with it?

Lots of posts regarding the vendor. Do a search.

Thanks, but I'm interested in feedback about the build quality of the dash, not the vendor.

Look up v10 mojo, he has it on his car and it looks great. I have seen it in person.

Jim, Make sure it matched the other carbon fiber you have in the interior or it wouldn't look all that great.

 

[jimster]

Good point..............'course, if the dash looks that good I'd ditch all the other stuff.

Jim, the more I look at my snake the more I like it : )

Is it pure carbon fiber, or did they dip it?

 

[venomblue550]

it's Pure carbon fiber...def a sweet piece...must have...fitment just like the one on your car...perfect...and scott from Elite is def the right guy to deal with....

 

[jimster]

Geez.......from the sound of it I'm gonna have to get one.

 

[jimster]

I can't beleive it. They jacked the price up $150.

Paint it jimster, I had mine painted and am really happy with the results. This picture is a little dark, but you can see enough to get an idea of the looks.

 

[jimster]

Dude....your car rocks.

The painted finish looks better than CF. Did you have a body shop do it? I'm curious to know what kind of paint they used.

I have elites cf pieces and they are beautiful..

Bulkhead..

Dash...

I take my car to Snake Oyl Products which is 15 miles from my house. Last winter, I took everything out that was gray in color, took it there, and they took care of it. Call them up at 608-849-9878 and talk to Cory, he is the owner. I know that they took it to a body shop, actually the same shop that painted the stripes on my car. Excellent work, you will not be disappointed.

Adam.........Elite could have the most beautiful CF in the universe for $1 a pop.......and I wouldn't spend a fookin dime on it. Not after they jacked up the price of their dash after I expressed an interest in purchasing one.

Look at this pic. Notice the uneven weave around the vent opening.

Hey thats fine Linster..but mine rock..ask anyone whos seen mine up close.. you wanted to hear from someone who has elites dash so I responded..PEACE

 

[jimster]

Whoa....adam......I'm sorry dude, I didn't mean to come across that way. I greatly appreciate the pics. A lot. I'm just upset that Elite has no scruples in the way they conduct business.

They advertise an item for $600 on an online auction.....
I express an interest in purchasing one.......
Then the price is raised the following day......

Hence the reason for my comments.

Peace bro.....and thanks again for the pics.

I guess you learned a little about the vendor didn't you

 

[jimster]

Yeppers......thanks for the heads up.
