i will walk away from this thread now.
Again...what difference would it be to you if they were full carbon-fiber replacements? It's not like the guy is selling cheap stick-on dash trim kits or covering these pieces with carbon-look vinyl, here. Oh, right...it's the principle.

Do you guys even have a clue? The cost of manufacturing full replacement trim-pieces, especially in such small quantities, would be exorbitant. You guys would be whining about him charging $1,400 for a small window-switch panel. I can't even think of many cars which have full carbon-fiber replacement pieces available for them, as molding all the clips in most trim is close to impossible. And a news-flash...if you think OEM carbon interior-trims in Mercedes, Audis, Porsches, etc., are full carbon pieces...guess again. They are all the same.
