Yeah, but as far as I know it's only standard on the G5 GT. And the door handles don't have carbon on them. Plus it's different than the type of carbon fibre appearance you get from the GM catalogue. But overall, I liked the kit in the G5. I just couldn't get over the tacky looking speedo gauges. Ugh.

I prefer the G5 version even if it doesn't look like CF at all it doesn't stand out as much..

If a group buy was put together, you could probably get a pretty good deal on a complete dash and door kit.

What's the average going rate for the cf kits you guys are buying now?

blue lightning! I paid $225

I don't want one, I'm just saying that's how much I paid. Of course I went thru the dealer so thats probably why so much.

Now all you gotta do is get yourself a black radio and HVAC face units and your interior will look primo. I swapped my silver out for the black, because I didn't like how the silver faces clashed with everything else.

By the way, where'd you pick up the parking brake lever from? I like yours alot.

Looks good. Too bad they don't do the door handles though.

Interior looks pretty good from the somewhat blurry pics. By the way, I really like your wheels too. Now the only thing you need is some Sportlines to drop the ride height a bit to fill in the big gaps in the wheels wells. Nice work!
