I wouldn't do too much CF. Go with the wood & CF trim or have it upholstered.

Also in the audio section I have a GT SPEC REAR strut bar on its way... Then the floor will be wrapped in black suede. Trunk carpet pieces on the sides and ceiling bart will just be painted black cause I really dont care lol.. Then the parts by the subs I will have in REAL carbon fiber normal weave... I MAY do a gold weave but I doubt it.

No I am very disappointed. But I cant exactly FREAK out it will do me no good. The turbo is 5 years old as well and was on the car while it was being re worked... I had it in the back of my mind I was going to have to get a new one... Just didnt want to. Now I have to, or rebuild it..... Hoping for a 300 dollar rebuild over a 1000 dollar turbo... We will see. Also, they said they think it was the turbo... So I am hoping it is and not the motor.
