I expected something complete different...and tbh, I'm not a massive fan of carbon, so almost expected it to be a bit tacky.

However, that's a really nice piece of work and I'm pretty impressed. It looks really well crafted. Can't wait to see what it looks like fitted. :D

We did look into it but because of the size of the vent's and 3x 52mm gauges it would of been rammed

Don't think there's room but if you gave me the measurements i could tell you. Could look into getting one made in place of the clock?
