Hi people,

bit of an update on the JCW dash for you:

The kit consists of a five piece instrument panel laminated with carbon fibre. It includes the JCW logo on the centre section and the carbon material has been manufactured so that each panel matches neighbouring carbon parts. The trim gives the interior a motorsport look and further enhances the JCW range.

Price is £785 inc VAT, plus fitting.

just ordered our set (there was only 3 kits in the UK) which will arrive tomorrow. so we will post some better pics when it arrives.

Think it looks the business from the pic

but need to see it in the 'flesh' and ideally would want to change the down tubes as well to match

Pricey as well

haha, look at that price! If any one buys that then they are a pleb! seriously please if any one buys that they have more money than sense! Yet another rip off from JCW...

personally the MINI brushed metal look, looks the best.

Carbon fibre just doesnt suit at all. - unless you had all the other parts in fibre, which they will bring out probably and will cost an estimated £2000 + VAT + Fitting + your arms and legs.

Minty · Apr 5th, 2004, 12:37 PM

You must of weighed it before installing it, since carbon fibre is really for weight benefits aswell as looks.
