Question Dash Kits

I'm thinking about putting a carbon fiber dash kit in the L. Has anyone put one on their and has pictures or opinions in which to buy and how it looks? I know that downs ford makes one but I've never seen what one would look like with the carbon fiber. Any help would b greatly appriciated.

Damn... BBQMAN

Your always cooking up something good!

Your use of the two kits in your truck was exactly what I was planning, however I wasn't sure how the two different kits would match one another. Does the carbon fiber from both kits look the same or can you tell a difference. Thanks in advance!

Keep on cooking up those ideas!

the molded kit is more of a silver/black whereas the flat kit from joshua tree is a dark gray/black carbon fiber. i like the contrast where they are outlining each other. some of the parts have common area, so i used the larger molded pieces when that happened. i like the look, "guys" that have seen it, love it. my wife said it looks like i hit a huge snake at 150mph. but come to think of it, i have some matching snake boots, and she hates them too.

I have the molded carbon fiber kit. I happen to like it, except for the part surrounding the steering column, I don't like the way it cuts off. People seem to either think it is a great choice, or, like MRBBQMAN said, I killed a snake and stuck it on my dash. But it is definitely a great quality kit.
