the install looks clean, but there is just too much going on on the dash. It probably looks better in person, but in the pics it looks like you took a can of krylon to everything and then stuck some stickers over the drip marks.

I'm a fan of subtle, so don't take what I say to heart (as I'm sure you won't)

Yeah, a lot of people are complaining it's busy. Right now, the problem that's going on is that the interior is truely in a stage of some areas being worked on while others were left stock. Soon, I'll be starting literally from the bottom up, and the bottom half will be red, then carbon fiber middle section (top of console, armrests on the doorpanel) and then the upper half will be black. I think that should make it a lot different, and hopefully tone down how busy it looks. It's not so bad in person, tho, the flash makes the red standout more.

it looks busy in the pictures but im sure in real life you would be able to sperate things, right now it looks like all formed together or something, lol, idk, but when you start looking at thigns individually its easier to notice them. im sure it looks a lot different in person. either way its nice as hell.

Just to get an idea of the cutting I had to do just to get this beast to fit....




And two really crappy pictures of it started up and running, just as a semi-teaser.
