They look great, but the website sucks! Little things like that make me question the quality.

I know my business. I don't know how to deign websites though and I guess it shows. But have your res. set higher than 800 600 and it helps. I could pay a web site designer big bucks but then the price for those covers would be $80.00 instead of $60.00
Also found the broken links for the battery cover and rear strut cover photo and fixed it. I was up late last night and really hate doing web pages when I don't know what I'm doing.

Are these dash kit made of real carbon fiber or simulated (painted)? (same question goes for the B-pillar covers)? and do we need to send in our dash pieces? Thanks!

It is not real carbon fiber. It is a process of 3 dimensional printing onto a part. It is beyond just painting, and is very labor intensive. It is applied to the OEM parts in our factory. We can send you the parts to swap out, or for faster service, send us yours. We need them for 3 or 4 days. Shipping chews up more time.

Default Should be a Group Buy!!!!

The B-pillars would be a real hit - if it's real carbon. I'm very interested - like order tomorrow interested.... Just looking for a level of comfort here.

I want to make the distinction here very clear. The interior dash and door trim is not real carbon fiber. That's why we can do it in so many different colors. Even wood grain if you' like. The underhood covers and strut tower caps, the mud guards(which will be shown soon) are not real carbon fiber.
The emblem inserts and B Pillar covers ARE real carbon fiber
The B pillar covers are normally $75.00 on our site and that is what we usually sell them for. I am offering them here to the people of this forum at $60.00. An already considerable saving and similar to what a group buy would be getting as far as a discount. This discount is for a limited time so get your orders in NOW!!!

Thumbs up

Nice, real carbon fiber! It's a good deal then! I'm wondering if people would prefer the entire replacement piece (in real carbon fiber) rather than stick on cover? However the price will double!

Not me. I felt the replacement was unnecessary and too expensive. To me this looks perfect. Real CF with easy installation at a reasonable price.

yeah gotta be real carbon fiber so it can properly support... wait no, its completely cosmetic, meaning fake is probably better than real.

sorry just dont understand the stick on "CF" peices and why they must be real. waste of carbon fiber IMO.

must just be me.
