that's positively vile. the full cf kit isn't so bad, but just looks out of place. if it was a full CF replacement (pieces, not stickers) I wouldn't feel as bad. sorry, but washi > BS stickers.

A **** that sits on your auto-trans shift.

Sorry.. I should be sarcastic...

I'm sure you know what a shift **** is.
"Momo" is just a brand name

Do it right!!
I'm all for modding interiors...I do it all the time, but I ALWAYS try and make it look like it came from the factory. On my GC SRT8, I replaced the grey suede inserts, then matched the dash humps and door panels with the same material so it all matched and got rid of the horrible Chrylser plastics. When it was done it looked like it came that way.

I understand trying a kit like that to make sure you actually want the pattern in the car, but I personally hate stick ons. They sit above the natural fit and finish and just look like you got them at, well, Ebay.

Now that you have the cf and you like it...do it right and spend a little money. The extra will pay for itself over time.

Patterntek is an amazing company who did a ton of work on some GC SRT8's. He has some kind of amazing process and can pretty much duplicate any pattern.

Here are a few examples:







As you can see he uses the original factory piece you send to him and applies whatever pattern in whatever color you choose. Factory fit and finish.

Just my .02. I plan on buying a 350z as my second car and I have big plans on subtle, yet strong mods - some of which i will use his process.

I like our aluminum, but when i get bored with it - i can assure you I will be using him to change it.

Check his stuff out and let me know what you guys think.
