Carbon Fiber
 
Does anyone have any good pictures of the carbon fiber helm on the Sonics?

If they have them, what do you think of it?

steve that looks great !! i'm in the process of getting those panels to upgrade my 1998 . can you show us a picture of the port side panel over top of the built in cooler ? do you also have the ignit panel also ?

26sonic, I think the panel upgrade would look great, I've got the plain laminate type panels now also. I just wonder what the wiring would end up looking like from behind after you swap out all those switches and gauges. I switched my Faria gauges to Gaffrigs and the wiring didn't look as neat after I got my hands on it! If Sonic used plug connectors it would be a snap, but I think everything is run from distribution blocks as I recall. I guess I'm being silly, but I think Sonic does such a clean job of routing the wires it's almost a shame to mess it up. What do you think or am I missing an easier way? Steve!

The 26 at the show looks AWESEOME with the purple panels, purple throttle/shifter, and purple IMCO steering wheel.

When we were at the Sonic Factory in January I got a quote to do our 1997 42 Sonic. Just the helm area was a total of 1600 dollars.

I switched my dash to the purple carbon fiber on my 42, which I purchaced from Linda at Sonic. I did not do the complete kit just what you see. I also changed the gauges and bezels from Faria to Gaffrig as well as the throttles and steering wheel all from Livorci. I just purchaced a Northstar gps/plotter 6000i which is this weekends project.

I took these pic's in my shop and they turned out pretty dark. I'll try to pull the boat out this weekend and take some more.

that looks great !!! now add a purple grab bar , i have one on my 26 and plan to add the carbon fiber panels .

jlsnyder26_Sonic 02-24-2004 03:40 PM

I thought about that, but then I would find myself changing everything else to purple as well...side rails, cleats, etc...

I think I'll get it wet before I start changing too much.

Working on adding a stereo system now.
