hello everyone,

so i was one of the lucky ones who jumped on the group buy by Carbon Fiber Element!.

The Deal: 9.5/10
it was a sick deal! and even though we did not hit the 10+ people to get them for $600, Tony gave us that price!!!, for $600 you'll have the radio trim, the shifter trim (the large piece), the dash trims (both sides), door pulls and the door panel trim. and i also did the steering wheel as well since I'm doing the interior trims. (the steering wheel is not included in the group buy), the way i did it is top, bottom and inner trim in carbon fiber and OEM leather on the sides with grey stitches (to match the M45 shift **** ).

i also bought the shifter trim (the small piece) from a member here in the forum because it was not included in the group buy (it was done buy Carbon fiber Elements as well) and i shipped it to the shop. they cleaned it and polished it for me for free to match the rest of my interior.

since i don't live in the US to send my interior to the shop and also buying them from the dealer will cost $1000+, i had to buy everything from ebay and ship them to the carbon fiber element!, it was a lot of money but it's worth it!

Communication: 10/10

the entire time i was talking to Tony though PM's (30+ PM's) here in the forum and he replies on the same day or the next, except for one time he took couple of days lol but still in terms of communication i give them 10/10 because other vendors take days to reply back! and i'm talking about PM's, posts in threads and profiles lol.

quality of work: 9/10

the only reason why i gave them 9 instead of 10 because i noticed a spot in the radio trim where the clear coat is coming off!? (see the pictures below) not sure how this happened but i cant do anything about it now because the parts are here and will cost a lot to send this piece back to the US so i have to live with it but other than that all pieces looks amazing! and well made!. the steering wheel is what i like the most!, smooth clear coat and the stitches are perfectly done!.

shipping: 10/10

shipping is very importing to me! because the boxes will travel to the other side of the world and will be inside cargoes, warehouses, trucks...etc until i get them and basically they will be like a punching bag through the entire journey lol but Tony did a good job wrapping the pieces, i had to go through tons of news papers to reach the piece lol but all of them are in good shape, no damages!

installation:

i did it myself! including the steering wheel. pretty easy to be honest!, just followed the DIY threads here in the forum. however i faced one problem with the steering wheel, one of the screws that you need to remove in order to pull the air is damaged! and now i don't have a grip when i try to turn it! ( stupid Infiniti had to put a T-Torx screw!!) but fingers crossed i don't have to remove the steering wheel again! cuz it will take a lot of time to figure out how to remove it! lol


overall, I'm happy that i jumped on this deal. I've always wanted to change my interior to Carbon fiber to match the rest of my Carbon fiber parts but for sure i will send more stuff to them.

I can't say, in my short time on this forum, that I've ever seen ANY pieces from CFE that didn't look top knotch. And I haven't seen any unhappy customers either.

I really like the two tone interior you have. The redone trim really looks good with the lighter color.

Nice job CFE.

 

oh so very sexy!

 

Looks awesome!

 

looks great! you definitely needed the small shifter trim piece!

 

haha yeah and it was a good timing too!, thanx for selling it to me

 

I agree! Ride's looking fine man

 

thanx sam!

yala buy something for the G!

 

Do you send in your own parts or do they send you new ones?

 

nope i couldn't send my own pieces so i bought them from ebay and i shipped them to the shop
