Yet More Carbon Fiber Tastiness...

...From Babybenz. My housekeeper sent me a photo of the freshly-CF'ed button bar surround; just the perfect finshing touch to all of the carbon fiber trim that John's done for me.



When I get home and wake the Cabrio up out of hibernation, it'll go into the dash. Stay tuned for a shot of the completed button bar in place.

If John doesn't, I will soon...

That photo was from my housekeeper, taken with her iPhone. I get home in 2-1/2 weeks for a month and a half vacation, and will photograph the piece and the installation with a real camera and put 'em up in my gallery & Smugmug photoblog.

How's this:


Got home Monday night from tour, woke the Cabrio up out of hibernation yesterday morning and put the button bar back together with John's CF-treated surround. I couldn't be more pleased with the interior of my car now.

Thanks, John! Excellent work, and well worth the bargain prices he charged me.

I LOVE the 'cf' look. I'm thinking about doing my Tridion Cell in 'cf' and have some matching dual stripes up the front fascia and access panel, then down the tailgate and rear fascia.

Kind of like 'jwight's only in 'cf'.
