I did my shifter cap and speedo bezel side pods in hydrocarbon, but did the e brake and paddle shifters in red. I also did the trim around the gauges.

I hoped they were. Never seen OEM look like that.
Looking good.
On my 06 vert I went with MR painted parts but went with hydrocarbon from TKO on my 07.

Not to be picky, but it's called carbon fiber, not hydrocarbon (which is just a molecule that contains hydrogen and carbon atoms).

Not to be mistaken for real Carbon Fiber the term hydrocarbon is used for the hydro graphic carbon fiber look.

Thanks for letting me know that some people use the word hydrocarbon in this way. Personally, I don't like that usage, because it confuses the meaning of the word, so I'll keep on using "hydrocarbon" in its original sense.

I like your steering Wheel. I know several places sell them, but where did you buy yours from? Good customer service, etc?
