Thumbs up Carbon fiber/ Kevlar armrest cover.

Just wanted to drop this picture on you guys/gals. This is just another pretty thing to go inside the EVO that I made. I made this out of carbon fiber/ blue kevlar..although in the pictures the blue isn't very visible..but let the sunlight hit it and you can see it nicely! I made a few others for some guys in the local area in black, blue, and the red looked really cool!
Alrighty, just wanted to get some of ya' excited that are into interior mods..I know some are not at all.


looking black in this angle....

Oh, and it fits like a glove...no glue or adhesive tape needed to install.

...here you can faintly see the blue when the light hits it from a different angle...

I am not exactly sure about other years....I drive a Talon so i am not too familiar with EVO interiors. I just know this fits the 8. Look inside your car and see if it is the same looking...or email me at leo@carbonwerks.com...I do not IM but email me when you get a chance.

Thanks for the props guys!

Soon they will be available from Dan at MachV Motorsports...www.machv.com since they are an authorized vendor I guess it is okay to mention them. I am finishing up the last of the molds and then production/shipping begins. More than likely right after the holidays. No price has been set yet as materials nd time is still being factored in. We made 4 molds to get an average so things work out fair for customers. But as you know carbon fiber isn't cheap...thats the only time you'll see those two words together. But it isn't going to be outrageous.
Anyhow, I will be making them for Dan with red, blue, yellow, silver...and of course black.

Here is a link to my car's page...you'll see alot of the carbon fiber work I have done in this car. But I have been doing imports for 3 years and have done tons of parts and many vehicles. Anyhow, this is my car (be nice, save the rice comments) and it's reworked interior. Thee is alot of different stuff on there.

this shot doesn't have as much photo glare....this was just set in the car for the photo's. The stock dash is being redone in black and then the carbon dash and airbag will go back in, thus no blue at the edges of the airbag.

HA! I hear ya' man, it can be overwhelming even for me sometimes...especially now that I am doing the complete rear seating area too....but it is to showcase the skills of the shop. My daily driver is a GMC Jimmy, nothing but leather,tint and mad bass!
