Nice job, I thought I was looking at my car! Whose kit did you use? I love my Alpine too, got to really use it to and from Carlisle this weekend.
Edit - forgive me I don't have my reading glasses with me, thats a very different finish from carbon fiber, almost like a marble. Very nice choice. I like it a lot1

Who did you order from?
How much was it?
How hard or easy was it to put on?

Thanks Pat, you're right. That finish is called "Marble Wood". It's a medium dark grey burl wood finish. I thought it would go best with the silver/slate grey interior of our cars.
To answer your question, the kit comes from a company called 'MimoUSA.com". You can go there to look at the different finishes they offer, but they are wholesale only. If you want to order, you can talk to Ryan Hand. He can be reached at mojoparts@gmail.com.
Later, Smfry

Hey Stan,
Order info is in the post to Pat.
Cost with shipping was less than $150.00.
It only took me 1 1/2 hours or so, you just have to be a little careful with that red tape stickum on the back of the pieces. And NO! Armorall residue, must be clean, clean, clean.

Normally I'm not a fan of the sticker kits, but this one doesn't look too bad. and $150 is a good price, some of the place were listing over $300. And it's a little closer, but I always wondered what our dashes would look like with a gloss black finish. nice addition.

They say to wipe down your dash with alcohol prior to attaching the pieces which I did. Just a suggestion on these dash kits....... install them on a hot, sunny afternoon. Put the next piece you are gonna install on top of your dash, in the sun. It will soften it up and make it more pliable. A lot easier to work with when its softened up.

Yes, luckily I have a can of alcohol in the shop. They didn't send the wipe packets of alcohol. But they did send the 2 packets of adhesive accelerator, and it does go quick. When I did mine it was 101 in the shade of the garage, no need to warm up these parts (lol).
