not sure about fitment, but I ordered these to later hear they were on 8 week back order.

I'd also ordered carbon B-Pillars, but I cancelled the whole order...
Sorry haven't been very impressed the The Z Store....

Thanks for the heads up.

I will call and see if they have them before i order anything.

Ive had past experiences with items showing available on websites just to find out they are on backorder.

If they are on backorder... put it on the product listing!!

I heard the front fits right but you need to work a little with the rear CF emblem. Thats so far what I heard hope this is helpful

Just got mine in! It looks ok but on the left side it looks like it could of been smoothed out better as there are some small imperfections. Now I am trying to figure out how to install it as the bumper has two dimples on each side, and the emblem does not have a hole to align. How are you guys installing these?

^^^ THIS X A BRAZILLION

That's like my #1 pet peeve of dealing with websites.

I ordered 3 fk'ing Bell helmets from different places only for them sit on the order until I called them to check the status, which they then tell me its not in stock.

I refuse to do business again with those companies.

FKN hate Back order Vendors. Still waiting on a cargo net from Z1 Motorsports. Yeah on back order after they collect and send tracking info. How convenient.

i also hate stores that show "in-stock" but then it means in-stock at their distributor or manufacturer's warehouse, not a the local shop.

Well the firment on these are not that great. The side tabs do not sit flush and there is a gap when installed. Cut off the dimples also and that did not help. Argh
