Hi all,

did you get that from dan corsa when he as selling his?

i would say that ash tray would be £25 and the center consle is £50

im going to be stripping down my b of its liquid dipped CF soon, got a heater controle panel with a small chip where the vents go a MFD cover, a instrument cluster, and the interior/exterior vent cover.

carbon dipped?! How does that work

You would NEVER get the weave to finish like that if you just dipped it in a mash of carbon weave and resin

My tip for flea bay is think about when the listing is ending..

try and have it end mid sunday evening - most people are home and possibly bored and may scout through ebay for some bargains.. its no good them enging at 2:30 on a wednesday when most are at work

always use a gallery picture
start the bidding low like 50p

usually works for me

its not really carbon fiber, in actual fact it's liquid CF vinal, dismos used to sell the stuff on here, costs a bit but i havent found one person in this country who can do it. so it all comes from grease

ebay costs a fortune in fees and can cause lots of bother with idiots tbh

Dimos is based in Greece and then they are sent to germancy and back to him! Thats why the process take about 4-6 weeks to complete

Dismos? i thought it was Daimos?? DimDG was his user name

Rich you should buy these and sell as a set with yours, i reckon you'd get more then

Edit: Actually it looks like its just Dimos

From his profile: http://dimos.fotopic.net/

And his original for sale thread: http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=387596
