If its not your taste then move along, nothing to see here.
Vinyls have become very convincing with depth and texture and change to light. This kit is only available in REAL CF in black, You can order the kit in red yellow blue or black vinyl carbon fiber.

Too my knowledge this is the company that sources these kits in the US they do not sell to the public only to vendors. Alot of this stuff is generically made in china then sources over to the US so I doubt someone would remake the kit to dye the CF red and recoat it to sell it for $60

Not trying to knock it at all as I said earlier I don't mind overlays just putting this information out there for people so they don't buy it expected real carbon fiber pieces in red.

You sure did by insinuating he had zero taste and or was a fool. Quite helpful. Stay calm and d-bag on.

My issue with overlays, especially on interior bits, is that the overlay can sometimes be too thick and it becomes obvious that something is sitting on top of the original surface.

That would be my concern.

It is in poor taste. I was trying to spare any passers by from seeing it and throwing up in their mouths.

But your taking your own opinion and assuming the masses are going to feel the same way ... That is what others are trying to say you arent protecting anyone unless its a bad product you have used yourself and you have experience with it, Then voice your opinion in a respectful informative way.

Just going about it wrong bud being to direct and coarse no one likes that approach.

$60 is what I paid. This kit sells for close to $225 with shipping. Came from a guy who bought the kit then decided they didn't want it anymore. I didn't know about the vinyl kits and that definitely seems plausible. Carid sells them and states that this kit is real red carbon fiber.

Yeah, I will test fit everything first and if it seems like it wont work out I wont install it. I think everything will work out, I am only worried about the vent overlays and if that will look odd as well as the knee bolsters. Another member has the black CF kit on this thread ---> http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=519787
