15-Piece Carbon Panel

JDMing Update:

All the way from Japan, i treated my FTO to some very rare carbon panel pieces produced in Japan. They are not real carbon fiber but a carbon Tone.

Carbon Tone Panels 15-piece set                                 - 2 x Power window switch 2 point                              - 2 x A-Pillar panel points                                           - Upper center console                                               - Lower center console                                                - Steering column                                                      - Side view mirrior triangular part inside and outside 4 points                                                                         - Cyberstork Carbon Dial Surround

Other similar options you can consider:

Hydrographic carbon - this effect is the use of hydrographic film and activator to achieve a carbon pattern effect. 

Carbon Water Transfer Printing. This method is similar to the hydrographic technique, carbon dipped to give the carbon pattern and shine. Probably the closest look to carbon fiber. 

3-M Carbon Wrap - Adhesive carbon film used to wrap interior or exterior parts to give the carbon fiber effect. Probably the best value for money option as opposed to the above options. Widely available through distributors, retail shops and ebay.

Just a brief summary update to date ^_^ Part3

In my previous blog, i mentioned after the respray i was experiencing some problems with the brakes, and some sort of resistance in the pedal. After some mechanical fiddling, my mechanic friends couldn't narrow the problem at first, so the car went on to the brake ramps. This particular device was used to measure the braking on each side of the wheels which would indicate the level of braking per side. As a result it illustrated the right side having some play. 

Haha just wanted to highlight the sign in this picture. Viewing area ;) my FTO exactly :D

More further dismantling needed and more techy's on the job. In the end we found the problem, it was due to my brake discs not touching the calipers right causing the resistance feel in the brakes.

Problem: Brake discs not fully touching the calipers.
Solution: Diamond Brake Skim to smooth the disc.

While i was at dynotech, i couldn't help myself but admire some EVO's :D
