Diode Dynamics Carbon Fiber and Illuminated Acrylic

Hello all!


We've been trying to keep these under wraps, but some of you may have seen it coming!


After months of research, we are proud to release our newest additions to the full line of custom-made Acrylic Accents from Diode Dynamics!




CARBON FIBER


First, I am pleased to announce that we will be offering a Carbon Fiber overlay option. It will be available on all pieces for just a few dollars more than the originals, which are pretty cheap to begin with.

(Sorry, only pictures of the first pieces for an FR-S for now. Check back later for completed Veloster pieces!)


The CF-style material is extremely durable, with high detail and texture in a matte finish. It is extremely hard to tell that it isn't real- all of our local customers who have seen it could not believe it even when holding it!


The CF overlay is integrated in with the design from the start, which allows for any custom text or logos. It also offers new design options, with an outline and main color. We recommend white outline, as shown, for high contrast.








ILLUMINATED ACRYLIC


I am proud to announce that after 5 long months of research and design, these are finally ready for production! Illuminated Acrylic Accents! Following the design of OEM illuminated pieces such as premium illuminated door sills, these plates use electroluminescent (EL) technology to provide a soft, even glow that looks OEM and blends with the interior perfectly. Additionally, it allows the pieces to be very thin.


What's the disadvantage to EL? The cost. EL is many times more expensive than LED, (which is why OEM door sill are often quite expensive) but we were able to bring the prices down to a reasonable level!


Driver Door Pull: $19.99, including wiring and connectors for installation
Cupholders: $29.99, including wiring and connectors for installation
Mission Plate: $34.99, including wiring and connectors for installation


These will be added to our site this week, so check there for more designs! Here's just one Genesis Coupe cupholder, and one Scion FR-S piece as a teaser!

Thanks for reading!

Sorry for the wait guys. Veloster pieces are being posted ASAP!

[chargeragain]

Will you have a Turbo specific version? Will the Veloster version basically have a "V" as the lighted area?

[Diode Dynamics]

We have not finalized the designs for the Veloster pieces yet. It is really all about getting a great-looking design.

Thank you,
Paul

Excited to see these, can't wait for the final design...perhaps you could even have a few designs and have the forums vote for a production model?

Looking good.

My only gripe would be that the EL glow does not match to the rest of the interior lighting.

Otherwise, looking sharp and good to see more and more accessories available for the V.

What's the latest on these?

Will there be a full V package like the normal acrylic accents?
