I got mine back last week, It cost me 450 to do most of the common pieces A/C vents, radio moulding, door switch covers. It is well worth it if you have the money and the time to wait for your pieces to come back. I waited almost two months for mine.

I had em done by this place:

www.socalimages.com

BTW, the owner is really cool and the work is quality.

Anthony:

2 months is too long to wait. Mine took almost that long too.

I've got a better solution:

I'll have 5 full sets available in a few weeks. These guys will be able to exchange their pieces immediately. No waiting with the dash torn apart for months.

Cool, I went to an SVTOA meet with my dash torn apart and made excuses while fellow members observed the interior with horror.

I agree two months was a long time to wait.....glad you found someone with pieces to exchange.

Tampa, what kind of prep work did you have to do to the surface? Any sanding? Do they go over the factory finish/texture? This is that photogenises stuff right?

Silver-Bolt:

You don't have to do anything. They'll actually blast the parts extremely smooth, removing all of the textured finish. The parts are then painted black as a base color, the carbon-fiber look is applied, they are clearcoated and polished to a permanent finish.

PROS: Unique, show-quality finish.
PROS: Roughly $100 more than the 3M stick-ons.

CONS: Your dash is torn apart for a month+ waiting on the parts to be returned.

I've developed a business relationship with them over the past months.

** I'll actually have five(5) full sets in a few weeks if anybody wants one. Let me know.

Cost will be substantially cheaper than they'll sell to the public and you won't have to wait a month!

I just need your original parts back after you install the new pieces.

Joey:
I can get you a set in red if that's what you want.

E-mail me if interested.

Rich
