This is a requested post for hombredelassrtas of my simulated carbon fiber dash kit. There are six pics, please don't post untill I get them all up. Certainly not the best or the cheapest kit out there, but hey it works for me. Got it here: http://www.brandsport.com/celica.html

I'm thinking of buying that dash kit as well. Can you post some more pics of the gauge bezel, w/different angles. THANX!

does it come with that instrument cover behind the steering wheel also? hows the fitment? Yes, it comes with the instrument cover. Fitment was perfect. Installation was a breeze; all pieces come with pre-fitted 3M adhesive strips. The key is to properly prep the dash by wiping it down with a very light solvent in the kit they recommend 3M Prep Sol 70. I advise doing the install on a hot summer day, if not that you have to use a hairdryer (NOT, repeat not a Heat gun!) to preheat the dash. I was told this is the same kit that Toyota was offering as an extra dealership accessory, I had asked them to put it in but they f-ed up and forgot so I just did it my self. Thanks all for the posative comments

I love the kit, looks better then the rest of them, it looks like it wrapped around the panels, but why doesnt the kit in the pic from the site look this good?? And one more thing, the site has two, which one did you get, and why would they need two? Only asking becuase i like the way yours looks but it doesnt look like the one that you have!!

I paid $249 for mine. The only difference I see in the description is the model years that each kit fits.
Looks like the $139.00 kit is for Celica Model years: 2001 2002
and the $249.00 kit is for Celica Model years: 2001 2002 2003 2004
Yeah the picture on their website looks different than what I got in the mail from them, not sure why.
To make certain you could always call them toll free at 1-877-341-6555.
I've bought a bunch of stuff from them and they have always been very helpful on the phone and all around great to deal with.
Hope that helps,

which one did you buy, the 139 or 249, and it came so that it wraps around the panels right??

pretty good for fake carbon fiber
Ask yourself one question. Is the juice worth the squeeze?
