If so, count me in 100%!!!
yes! interested in matte/satin finish! glossy is way too flashy/show-car-ish for my taste

If his mold surface finish is perfect...he can use Pre-preg CF and vac bag for an F1 dry carbon look.

Another way is to final wet-sand with 3000#grit .(no polish)

One more is to spray your clear with Satin additives (based with talcs)....but on a darker material like CF Twills.....the particulates can look milky up close.

Well this car is actually in Switzerland. It was made by a small time tuning company. They had the engine done up NA and the interior done up as you've seen.

Alcantara + CF panels sum up to 6500 Euros!!! ...this was back in 2008 when I asked about it.

I was going to say....that cars interior works alone would run anywhere from 8k to 10k here in the states.

Not to mention a FULL pull-out/removal to do it.

To me the most essential points are:

1- Front splitter that can also fit with the M aerodynamic package.
2- Rear diffuser close in style to the Ferrari 458 Italia for example.
3- Mirror covers.
4- Side skirts.
5- Anti-roll bars.
