There is a vendor on here that sells them... PM "JDMZ33". I've never bought anything from him, however there are mixed reviews.

Most complaints that I've seen just say that it takes forever for them to get their products after paying, and I've seen a couple with a few minor fitment gripes, while others have been perfectly happy with their purchases. Good luck!

I bought a set from the Z-store and was pretty unhappy with them. As mentioned in previous posts, there were serious fit issues. The set consists of 2 pieces per side: Piece #1 covers the front and top and is so thick and rigid that it doesn't want to bend over the top or stay stuck down. I had to use super glue to keep it from peeling up on the top section. Piece #2 covers the bottom portion of the silver insert and leaves a big gap between the two pieces that shows a lot of the silver from underneath. I was so disappointed with them that I bought a set of actual cf pieces on eBay that wrap around the entire silver insert. Unfortunately, they didn't have the audio and cruise control cut outs so I had to do that myself. See my post on this thread for pix:

While I'm not super-pleased with the way they turned out, they do look a heck of a lot better than the adhesive overlays from the Z-store did. FYI, they are much darker than the picture makes them look and match the steering wheel color well. Good luck.
