You can bet they're faux carbon fibre. IIRC the Schumaker came with them.

i just threw one of them away otherwise you could of had it for free, yes they are faux c/f but they look smarter then the standard black one

2001 onwards sportings have the silver one and it looks much cheaper (faux aluminium) and doesn't match the doorcards IMO. :yuck:

The first thing Mrs. HM made me do before she agreed to swap the Red (2000) Sei for the yellow (2001) Sei she has now is fit a faux carbon surround.

The earlier interior is nicer full stop, doesn't have the silly rear head rests and plasticy door cards. The seats are lower, better and more comfortable...

The only better thing about the later sei IMO is the MPI, front bumper, opening rear windows and clear indicators.

The MPI front bumper has more intercooler holeidge (made up word).

I like them both but the MPI bumper just has it by a knats nob for me.

yeah its probably much better for room and airflow etc, give you that. but why make things easy ?

But that horrible SPI clock nacelle thingy!

Honestly, discussing the beauty of MPI to SPI Sei interiors is like a beauty contest between warts and pimples.

More air, cooler intercooler, cooler charge, more power.

Doesn't make it easier, just better. The more holeidge the better.

Eh???

Mine are both the same just one has a mechanical trip meter and different coloured clocks.

And the cinq dash belongs in a museum.

i'd rather be a few horses down and have the mk1 bumper

Meh, It's me that will have to look at it most because it will be in my rear view mirror.

Edit: Runs and hides from rolling pin...

I'll have probably finished it by the time you get round to fixing yours.

My 2000 SPI Sporting has All the idiot lights round the outside. Nasty!

And the cinq dash belongs in a museum.

Well, at least the Cinq Sporting dash came with a temperature guage, instead of the "Ooops, sorry, just done the head gasket" light.
