I think you've got to go custom... Maybe we should get a group together and do a small set?

if you send a blonde escort to James' house he might let you know about his.
i've sent the escort but he noticed she was a brunette with blonde wig and didn't go for it

300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
Carbon

front lip can be done as an overlay to the oe lip,the problem with doing it up north is if it gets to cold it will delaminate from exterior panels.You can diy all your own interior parts if you practice on some toss away pieces first.Or you can pay someone to do them for you

SOmeone referrel me to this guy via e-mail. I sent him an e-mail about doing our car, has not reply yet. I think how it work is we sent all our interior pieces in to him and he make the over lay. He located in SOuth FLorida, if someone live near the 305 area code and can check this palce out for us, talk to the guy in person. Maybe check out his work for us. I don't want to sent someone my interior pieces and never see it again.

Peter,
I am in 305, I will call them this week and see if I can go and check them out for you. From the pictures I see it looks good but in person would be better of course. By the way, are you planning to overlay over the OEM trim or just make new trim all together?

I really don't know which way is best, i have no use for the old pieces if I get the CF. On his website he wanted $750 for complete interior trim if we sent out pieces in. Is $750 for every pieces included in the doors? I counted 17 pieces total not included the center arm rest lid, i don't want that CF.

Max, can you drop by and check it out for us? Ask him for group discount.

thanks

Jeff...great picture, but leaves me wondering where do you net surf exactly to know where pictures like that exist??? LOL.

I have been trying to call that 305 number , first there was no answer, now I am getting a recording saying that the number is not active! I have no address, and the retailer he lists, their site is not working yet! The only way is to send him an email, which I did and havent heard back yet. Cheers!
