Default Apsis: Finally C7 Matte Finish Carbon Parts Installed....lots of pix....gotta see!!

Hi All,

Finally our local customer installs the first batch of C7 Interior Matte Finish Carbon Parts today and I snap some shots. Indeed it really looks so beeeeeeeautiful. Definitely pictures don't do the justice. Can't wait to share with members.

This is the FIRST matte finish whole interior on this planet!!!! Next week we will have many more parts for him including the Seat Back Panels, Side Panels, Side Airbag Cover....etc. Definitely will post pictures to share with you so stay tuned.

As you can see from the pictures, our matte finish carbon parts match PERFECTLY to the factory carbon. Now you can have peace of mind to place the orders.

If you are interested in pricing, please send email to jw@apsisusa.com. I will send it to you immediately. (Sorry, Can't send by pm)

Here are the pictures. A lot of pictures. Enjoy it.

Sorry, NO. When the customer comes to our shop they are installed. But you can go to GM's web to see the pictures.

Or maybe somebody has the same color scheme please post the pictures for comparison. Thanks

Default Here it is boys! The very first one installed....

Guys,

Sorry about the picture quality-these were taken with my iPhone at the dealership, who installed the center console. I had to get to the radio station to be on the radio quickly.


THE CENTER CONSOLE LOOKS AWESOME!!!! It perfectly blends with the OEM carbon fiber dash.


I'll try to get some sunshine shots ASAP.

Is it just an "optimal delusion" or is the passenger door pull top leading edge look like the CF is already worn partially through? Hope it is just a shadow or reflection, but that piece doesn't look like the same quality as the rest.

That pc is leather with stitching.

I'm looking at the last picture in your post. The forward slanting handle with the CF looking insert and the flaw/wear mark just forward of the little "triangle" shaped button. Is that leather with stitching, or is the surrounding grey material to the CF what you are referencing?

If you are talking about the white area just ahead of the button, that is a reflection from the sunlight of flash that you are seeing. Not wear or anything like that. Just ahead of that, along the edge of the piece, the lighting doesn't show the weave for the camera's eye. Nothing that you are seeing is flawed. Just illusions caused by the lighting. These parts have a layer of epoxy between the weave and the matt clear coating. There won't be any wearing out the finish on these parts unless you hit them with sand paper.

Default Apsis Spices up C7 Interior



The accessory company Apsis USA is cooking up a pretty nice collection of matte-finish interior parts for the C7.

The Apsis upgrade, which includes custom touches on everything from the door handles to the center console, certainly adds a nice look to the cockpit, which you can see more pictures of here.

Apsis says it will be expanding its matte finish offerings even more in the near future to include seat-back panels, side panels, and side airbag covers.

Read more on the Corvette Forum blog.

Yes we can make any pc for you in matte finish. We don't stock it so you have to put back order.

A little too much CF on the center console for me. I like CF as an accent. I like the picture with the aluminum around the shifter. I think I would put aluminum on the covers for the compartments on the center console.

But otherwise it looks pretty good.
