Carbon Fiber Gauge Pods

Airpoppoff · Feb 15, 2003

Ive seen these for a stupid civic, has anyone seen them for our cars??

talonted_one · Feb 15, 2003

no but im looking into making them myself.

TurboTrix sells the 2-gauge A-pillar CF-look pod that I happen to have, though we all know fake CF is pretty ugly. I'm gonna see if I can get a real one made from a mold of this one though.

www.carbonwerks.com is supposed to start making them pretty soon, at least that what it says down at the the bottom of their interior page.

bobgeorge · Feb 16, 2003

i got it from powertoyz.com and its like real carbon fiber sheet on top of plastic but its not real all the way threw, $40 i could not find a solid all c/f pod but its better than that damn vinyl sheeting stuff

does it really matter if its CF all the way through? i'm sure putting real cf on plastic helps keep the price down.

well, i think its just covered, it looks fake, and its not the glossy look of cf

i phrased my question wrong. say there are two identical looking CF gauge pods.... one is cf all the way through and one is plastic or something but has real cf overtop.. and the straight through cf one is $10 more. which would you buy? if its the straight through cf one then why?

Soon, we'll have carbon fiber wheels.

Wait, we already do.

Who cares if its C/F all the way through. Its a guage pod, it doesnt need weight reduction. If it has a nice finish, buy it, thats all Ill be looking for.
