Searched and didn't find anything on them...Does anyone have this installed? Does it lineup nice? Only reason i'm lookin' at these is because the previous owner of the car painted the housing around the radio/shifter red...YUCK. Just curious as to how the kit lines up and if you can see the factory housing under it?

It's OEM, so it lines up great. You can see a little bit of the dash underneath it, mainly around the hvac controls, so I might do a quick black spraypaint job before you apply the dash.

A few different people have it, just search around. The only person I can name off the top of my head is Talonxracer, his thread has pics in it.

how do you think it would fit w/ the s2000 engine start button?? I have it installed on the drivers side of the shifter...it has that chrome ring around the button that seems bigger than the hole for that side of the carbon fiber trim...

Is it real CF or just a "CF pattern"?

i think it will work just fine either it will overlap a little or it will be the right size...im guessin, right size...



its nice i guess...make sure you take your time to line it up, whoever put mine on before i bought the car ended up with it crooked and it angers me...

ill prolly just switch to stock silver eventually...itll be new for me

go down to the bottom to see the cf colours

much cheaper but I would want to paint the center black befor the install.

i got the black blue cf, i love it.....tho painting ur console black is kinda a pre-req as it looks off with the kit on and the little bits of silver shinning thro.,... i have the full kit, there are a few pieces that are kinda unnessary but overall it looks killer, and way better than the fake cf honda stuff...
