I found this thread very interesting.
Maybe some more digging is in order.

Hm that is interesting. At first I was expecting to see a completely carbon fiber dash.

Sorry I forgot about that.
Basically there was a factory carbon fiber dash trim kit offered in Europe. Here are some pics, his entire interior is stock with the exception of his shift knob, ebrake lever, and floor mats.

To me that looks like the flea-bay stick-on kit. The one on the bezel is the dead giveaway as it is only the outside of the bezel, leaving acres of black plastic visible. Also, when you look at the other CF part they did make for the car, it's a different color than those in that pic. I'm not sure if the flash is doing it, but the cluster surround that Mitsu offers is much darker than those pieces (both in person and in pictures).

Hmm, I hadn't noticed the inside bezel.
Well darn, I was hoping it was actual carbon fiber pieces and not that stick on stuff.

That really doesn't look like Carbon fiber, and jeremy is right, it looks stuck on.
Many dealers offer options at the dealer, so it comes on the car "stock" but the dealer actually installed it. Things like tint, chrome, different tires, exhaust tips, etc. are all common dealer "options"

He could have at least cleaned up his interior before posting pictures of it.
