Carbon Center Console

[Patio208]

So my Synth Carbon center console overlay just arrived.... Maybe I was naive, I was assuming it was a piece of CF that slides on top of the console, wrapping around it like the OEM CF mirror covers.... That isn't what I received, it appears to be just an $80 precut sticker. They claim it to be " Authentic Carbon Fiber 3k Twill 2x2 Consistent Weave " but I have never seen a mailman fold real CF in half and shove it into my mailbox...

I feel your pain, I received mine this week also. I think I'm going to pass on installing it for now. Why didn't Acura just use the same finish they applied to the dash board? That would've been acceptable.

I’m considering this:

Since I have other alcantara in the car (wheel, seats, shift boot) and no other carbon, this might match a bit better. Downside is you send in your trim for them to wrap.

That site mentions only the FL5. Would they do it for the ITS?

Same part.

Same part.

Integra has a notch in it where the soft touch knees pad wraps around the dash to the console.

oh was unaware, sorry!

With that being said, I’m sure the process for them is the same, notch or not notch.. can always reach out to ask if they’ll do your integra piece

not sure why it didn’t load but i’m pretty certain the center console for the 23 would fit the ITS, i’d assume they’re the same

It says on the listing: Fabricated to Order: Please allow up to 10 business days for order to be made. Let us know if you need manual or automatic in the notes section of your order or message us after.

I never ended up installing it yet, kind of scared about the adhesive and if I change my mind. They told me you'd just need adhesive remover to remove any residue if you change your mind, but I'm worried it will damage the original finish on the center console.
