^^^^ I'll post some pics in my build thread (needs updating anyway) once it's all fitted next week but its uber cool IMO. Only got one pic that the company who dipped it had sent and I can't seem to find that.   :laugh:

Assuming MC71 went for a similar style to me, it should look a little like:



Pretty pants pic from iPhone, but you can just about make out the carbon  :happy2:, quality is top notch, and I would thoroughly recommend the guy  :happy2:

Drove though a ruddy big puddle and don't realise it was hiding a massive pothole. Even at 15MPH it still manage to buckle the front passenger side alloy and pop the tyre  :fighting:

^^^^ That will look awesome. I paid £80 for the 2 dash trim pieces. Am sending off a load more pieces to be done now!  :pomppomp:

For those that've asked. Here's a pic of mine. Needs rebuilding and fitting but looks the nuts IMO.......

Looks awesome  :happy2:

I'm glad that you've had some parts done by Adrian. The guy's work is excellent, and with you being a 'fairly'  :laugh: active poster on here, I could see him getting some more business from the forum.

IIRC he did my stereo surround, top vent surround, ash tray surround, gear gaitor surround (all shown in my pic), passenger & driver side vents and drivers side door handle for about £120. I need to get my passenger handle (and head light switch surround - if I can ever remove the bugger) to him to complete the interior  :happy2:

I'd happily recommend his work to anyone, and I'm sure that Adrian would sort a discount for forum members.
