My Experience dealing with CarbonFiberElement + Reviews (Tons of Pics)

birdmanx1 · 08-25-2012, 10:17 AM

I recently had a lot of CF work done on my car but Tony@CarbonFiberElement. In view of the numerous complaints and bad experience Forum members had about other vendors, I figure I would set up a thread and share how my experience went with CFE.

I got the following done:
** Steering Wheel
** Windows Switches Panels
** B-pillars
** Interior A-pillars
** Doors links
** Radio/AC console
** Shift plate
** Armrest
** Cupholder

I have a SERIOUS complaint about the work done by Tony@CarbonFiberElement. It was done WAY TOO WELL and the experience dealing with him was TOO GOOD

Before I got to Tony, we had been texting back and forth about what I needed to be done. Tony was amazingly patient, fun to deal and thorough in his replies.

I made my way out to Tony later than expected and beyond Tony & Freddy's working hours because of conference hours but neither of them snapped or expressed any frustration.

I wasn't planning on getting much but upon seeing the work CarbonFiberElement does in person, the wallet opened up wide. I was amazed at the quality of the workmanship that my jaw being dropped the whole time would have led one to think that I had some type of mental health impairment

When it comes down to quality of work for any Carbon Fiber project, look no further than CarbonFiberElement to get the job done above and beyond.
I was/am extremely pleased with the whole process. It was actually too smooth in views of the experiences fellow members had with other vendors.

Thanks Man!! My jaws dropped when I first saw the finish

the armrest's holding up well. I had to teach myself not to lean too hard on it.

cf element always make good quality products, but i think you need more cf pieces. no offense but right now it seems like they are all over the place.

ever consider having the cubby trim and cubby cover wrapped as well?

Looks great Tony is a stand up guy and pleasure to work with from my experience with him, looking forward to getting more parts done

No offense taken Apoc

I didn't want to get way too many parts and go a bit overboard with the CF. my goal was to go for parts here and there and get rid of the cheap plastic parts. I've pretty achieved it and will consider doing the gauges pods and the dashboard. I didn't want to do the cubby and other areas because of the Nismo finish.

Thanks much Cheshirecat! I'm glad to share them and hopefully make a good case for getting some of those parts done. Aesthetically speaking, they look fantastic and stockish

My pleasure for the review man. I just wanted to make sure to show that I appreciated the experience and meeting the fun team. Thanks for the water man, after the 3 hours of conference all the way to you and the heat, I needed that.

It was on purpose that I left all the pics showing you drop-dead hunks guys at CFElement at work. It was out of love man, you wouldn't want sexy Z chicks on the forum sexting you nonstop while you are trying to make awesome CF parts for us
