Hi All,

I'm considering replacing my centre tunnel and sill protectors with carbon fibre parts...
Anyone already done it ? Got any pictures ? Anything I need to know ?

Didn't do the centre tunnel but I did the sill covers, here's a pic or 2:-





Easy to fit, only a handful of screws and a bit of double sided tape per side

Excellent!! Are they scratch resistant or do you have to be careful getting in or out ?

Where did you get yours from and how much ?

I had no real issues with scratches but I was always quite careful getting in and out. It was a quite glossy surface so I guess if you are not careful it could be marked but then I guess polished out as well.

Cost was around £200 and I got them from a friend who made a few Carbon parts but he is not doing them now.

Google is probably the best option now.

oh ok, thanks... shame as I've found some online but they don't have Lotus written in them... no matter.
was wondering whether to do the centre console (£260ish) and the sills or just the sills... Just bought a new centre console (original), so maybe I might do the sills first...

thanks again...
