Carbon Fiber help needed.
Hi,i would like to order some carbon fiber interior pieces for my car,but am put off by the price of O.E Porsche parts.So i started checking out the web for aftermarket manufacturers.There are a couple out there,but it is impossible to guage the quality and fit of their products without buying first.i quite like the idea of silver C/F,but i have only come across this option at a company called Techauthority Ltd.No doubt i am probably not the first to have this predicament,and was wondering if anyone out there could give me any advice,and/or pics?

The best advice I can give and many others would probably say the same... stick with the OEM Carbon Fiber... If you buy it right (don't pay dealer prices) you will not be disappointed with the look.. I personally don't have any experience with the stick on stuff but from the pictures I have seen its not for me.. You have a $130K TT.. dress it up so it doesn't look like a $30K Toyota..
I recently just changed out all of my speckled grey interior to Carbon Fiber.. What color interior do you have? I know a dealer that has some Grey pieces that he will let go for cheap.. shifter/handbrake/wheel.. Also I purchased some stuff from Bob at Foreign Affairs (Board Sponsor.. look to the right) His prices are unbeatable.. he pays less then most dealers.
Here is link to my Carbon Interior Project.. along with pics..

I have added a lot of carbon and I agree, go with OEM. Yes it is expensive but so is your car. I bought all of mine through Gert at Carnewal. At least you will know that you will NOT be disappointed with the fit or quality.
