That looks just like the GT Apex trim but in black. Looks great! was it easy to track down? I would like some but im in the other side of the world, Australia.

Daniel.

Yes, I was happy to see the pattern was very similar. Smile

And no it was not hard at all, our distributor (Im a manager of a car dealer store) of (how do you say) car seat covers had it in stock. And they said they could make me new ones with that fabric. Big Grin

I can send some to you if you want, how much do you need?

Too bad to paint the carbon fibre rear hatch, but the look is more important than showing off expensive parts. Wink

Last thing to be filled. First taking away several layers of some terrible kind of paint, had to use rasorblade! Sad

Eventually, but what a mess.

First layer of filler, I have to sandpaper it down and do it twice before the last 800 wet sandpaper.

Foreground: Wet sand paper (tonight 320-paper)
(right front fender steel)

Background: Epoxy filler station (new filler after 320-paper where needed)
(back hatch carbon fibre)

After this its the last step with 600-paper before the paint shop gets to work.
