Title: calling all carbon fibre interior buyers!
Post by: humbucker on 14 March 2009, 23:16:49

i went to the vboa spares day last weekend (only three omegas in the car park inc mine) and picked up a shedload of gear for my cav at rock bottom prices. while there i noted quite a lot of omega bits and some that stood out were these irmscher carbon fibre effect interior panels which i think are the standard issue on mv6 minifacelifts. they came with quite a price tag, £180 all in i think, but brand new in irmscher packaging they must be pretty rare. maybe there's a perfectionist amongst you with money to burn? enjoy the snaps! :

up close brand new without a mark on it i have to say it did look really nice. but i dont think theyre actual carbon fibre are they, just the carbon fibre print? like the wooden effect ones just with a different print on them? for £180 i would expect actual carbon fibre! but then again you do get a lovely irmscher box with each part hahahaha!

Didn't see your car there!

Nearly bought a brand new 3.0 Alternator (more reliable than the ones fitted to the 3.2) for £30 but changed my mind.

Maybe it's coz I am getting old but I just dont like them.  I prefer the Walnut finnish.  Ah well.

Wtf is boss? Ive come to think of fake carbon as a bit chav since that sad trend infected the bike world. Much prefer the fake wood. ;D ;D

Really? I've seen a lot of replies on here about the faux walnut - i've got it in my f/l elite and I hate it.

As soon as I can find some MV6 silver trim the walnut is coming out (and, judging by the opinions on here, will promptly be up for sale!)

 ;D ;D

One more vote for the genuine mock Walnut, the carbon fibre looks more like plastic than plastic does.   :y

its not legit carbon fibre, just the print i think. proper carbon fibre weave might look nice. i quite like it anyway, although not at that price, and it certainly suits the sportier 'souped up' omegas more than the more refined walnut finish
