Hey everyone,

Today I installed the OEM CF radio cover since CSL is equipped with the best music system under the hood :) I always wanted to try the CSL logo as in the Prototype CSL and after a few attempts I think it is a good match. I was afraid it could look tacky but I think it didn't. Very pleased with the overall look.
I am sure my lap times will drop significantly :hahaha:

I replaced the first large logo with this smaller one later thinking it looks classier,

Looks good, most of us now have CF trim across the dash, replaced the silver trim, thanks to our leader :thumbs:

However you do realise it is heavier than the standard trim? :smokin:

I ve been looking at cf parts for a while and dissapointingly most of the stuff on the market is purely decorative. They are all cf overlaid on oem plastic parts. I like all cf parts !
Door mirror and bases in all cf is my next step if I can find.

Why not use a boot badge CSL instead of a sticky label?

This was the way it looked in the CSL prototype. Wanted to pay homage to that.

Like this :)

Quick question, divert me elsewhere if need be but my steering wheel looks chunkier than the one in that pic, is that right or has someone used too much padding during a retrim?

You mean my pic or the one you posted ? If mine, I had mine retrimmed to original width. Should be the same as factory job but certainly not chunkier.
Hope it helps.

Do they have door mirrors and base ? I couldn't see them on their site.

They're carbon overlaid on standard trims Neil.

Not all carbon fibre.

Thanks guys.

I also found this, they say it is also all CF but I sent them a email asking again. If so, this looks like a better value.

Do you have any pics of both of them on your car ? Curious to see how they look together.
Only CF housings on a SG car looks a little off to me, even if I can't find all CF part, I would paint the base black to at least have a more complete look.

Finally found what I was looking for, all CF mirrors and base BUT what a price !!!

CA CF Mirrors (http://www.ca-int.co.uk/products-Y2FyX21ha2U9Ym13JmNhcl90eXBlPWU0Nm0mY2F0X2lkPTg1Jm NvbXBfaWQ9OA==.html)

They look awesome though, has anyone fitted these ?

False alarm again. CA just replied to me stating the mirror bases are only lamination over oem parts :(
