Adding the same effect to other parts has worked really well too.

How on earth does that stuff stick on? The corners are immaculate :shock:

I prefer to keep the walnut effect because that's as Peugeot intended. I'm not normally interested in modifications.
However, this really has got me thinking...
well i guess it still is as peugeot intended under the "sticky back plastic" :lol: "Heat" ive found is the key get it to mould and shape correctly :wink: And to be fair its only as much a mod as putting your favorite tyres on, or installing a handsfree kit, and its completly reversable with minimal effort, i just like "Personalising" :lol:

You could carbon cover also the speedo surround?
I am gonna remove the "Pin stripe" from the MFD... doesnt look right to me, as for the speedo face, i did completly strip the clocks down, removed the bi-metalic cover with that intention. to the realise that i wouldnt of seen any interior dash lights (eng mang, turn sig, battery, etc etc etc) :oops: :oops: :lol: so i am going to order some of the silver clock rings, like the rapier has i think :wink:

I must say I've never liked light colour interiors but the work you've done there is mighty impressive, what you need now is a 14 year old rather tatty 1.9 GLX to work on, fancy a straight swap??? :supafrisk:

How did you go the pin striping?
Would you be willing to sell?
That would look lovely over some ash wood trim :oops:

Very tempting :) How easy were they to get centre?
Think 'Executive' would look stupid on an SE?

No SE is like an executive but less old man ish. I.e. sporty half leather seats, ash wood, silver centre console etc etc...

Won't be wanting one right now, maybe in a few months when I start properly looking for a nice 406 to replace my Focus.

But this has given me some great ideas for abit of interior design :lol:
