Its been a long agonising week ,as my gp carbon parts arrived last Sunday 1st but been stuck in customs as the thieving so and so wanted money finally just arrives today on 11th .
and the 3 day express shipping did not relay its part , that was a waste of money !!

I first i have to say thanks to Imaknockov who has been very very helpful, second to none service as i place the order and paid it was sent out same day and tracking number sent before i could even ask for it .. hats off a great service!!
right now moving on to the important part the parts and the quality of the finish and fitting

I. quality
its very much on par to the OEM carbon parts !very much capture the OEM look 100%

2. finishing
the finish is 2nd to none all the parts have been done to a very high standard as you would expect , from any professional

3.fitting
all i can say they fit pretty much perfectly just slight alignment on the parts when placing the screws back and fits beautifully

4 . overall look
now it really does look very very close to the gen !!million miles from the fake carbon
parts !

5.final verdict
im very happy with the overall look and feel of the carbon and quality and fitting so much better then the fake carbon look its just worlds apart .
also now ive seen the gen carbon its 100% like the gen carbon can not tell the difference
bravo for you excellent work 10 out 10 !!

fitting the parts is pretty much straight forward long as you have the right tool
tools need for the job
1 hex driver 2mm
2 hex driver 1.5mm
3 hex driver 1mm
4 modded 3mm flatted head screw driver with slot cut out of the middle
5 dust cover
now you all set to go !!

remove case back screws with hex driver 1.5mm and the same time use hex driver 2mm to hold the bezel screws in place !and remove the replacement part as well

now use your modded 3mm flat driver to remove the grooved washer on the inside of the case hold bezel screws in place with hex or use to unscrew or visa versa

now to remove bezel use a small flat screw driver to praise of the bezel be care not to damage the part underneath

move on to the pusher guards use hex 1mm to remove screws !!

now that you have all the parts just reassemble the parts in the same order , job done

now enjoy your very close to gen carbon ap grand prix

oh geebus, what is going on, on this forum lately?? I am killing my laptop with drool.

I think all the guys who used to make watches in switzerland gave up the 9-5 and started hanging out here....

 

[levelmanroger]

Nice brake pads!!



Seriously, the finished product is just gorgeous. How much did this little project cost?

[boostin20]

What forum is the guy who made these parts on? How can I contact him?

 

[Royster629]

RG I believe.. see Imaknockov in "supporting vendors"

 

[zorro-l]

Iv'e played around with the light so the carbon would show its marble pattern more clearly !!

any question please feel free to ask !!

 

[boostin20]

Is that true zorro, or are we keeping him shrouded in mystery?
