After it is installed, if someone is local and within Washington I have no problem meeting up and showing the quality and fitment as well on either vehicles. Pictures will come as soon as it arrives before and after install. If anyone has any specific pictures they would like to see let me know ahead of time through PM or in this thread.

I might think about one of these. I love the carbon fiber look. How do these install, do they just overlay that part of the wheel?

Sir. This carbon steering insert is a piece of cover that can be attached to the steering and gives a bling look. (No need to take you airbag apart to complete the installation)

Update!!!

Got the 1st sample and our forum member Ekonetics had finished the tesing.
Overall the fitment is OK but we are not satisfied w/ the thickness of that Carbon Piece.
I already made a request to the factory and have them remake a new one which is contructed w/ 3 layers (instead of 2 layers we usually see at the market and by other seller). That shoud make the quality of our carbon steering cover AS GOOD AS the genuine Mugen Carbon Steering Cover.

Also, to be competitive on both price and quality, group buy price has been revised!!!

6+ ppl $89 shipped to US lower 48 states

Do you have any plans for other parts? I was thinking specifically the upper glove box.

The fitment of the silver cover was very good if you make sure to align it properly before attaching.

I'm interested in the wheel insert if it is dry carbon and not the gloss look. If so, put me down for one. I'm also interested in the vents and upper glove box if it's in dry carbon as well. And interested in the rear garnish, gloss carbon.

Yes, these are all dry carbon. These are not just carbon look sticker which won't give you the 3D look.

I'm interested. Do you have the silver only or do you also have another set of the black inserts. Can you ship to Canada, or US only?

since it is a testing sample, how good is the fitment and quality of the piece as well as if there are any defects including any scratches, dents or imperfections? When you say its dry carbon, does it still have a glossy finish or is it matte when u look at it. Can't really tell from the picture since there's flash used.

another question, will there be the silver color for the other pieces u will be offering so it could match.

thanks a lot.

The carbon steering inserts has No defects, nothing wrong at all. It's constructed w/ 2 layer 3K carbon fiber weave. And Yes, it does have a glossy finish.

We currently only offer Black carbon as the group buy option.

If more ppl are interested in silver carbon, we can also arrange a group buy for that

Crap...I meant RHD.

It looks like they are opposite of mine.



See how it's smaller on the right and larger on the left? Where as a RHD is the opposite...
