I guess if there's enough interest anything's possible...

I would be interested since I only have cruise control and I don't think a third piece is needed for them to make that third mold where they can make it and block the holes.

If thats fine then I would do it for $100 shipped, hope thats cool with them

$100 for pre-pregg anything is good. I know we wouldn't be able to do something like that for $100.


Good luck !

Finish quality is top notch. Don't worry. Check out this pics of the other products that they have produced. I would be proud to have anything of that quality on my car.

mine would be replacements. You would take off the silver piece covering the black plastic and replace with the carbon fiber cover.
