These kits are legit. They are extremely solid and look really nice. I just cant see myself paying 300$ for a small simple carbon fiber part. If what you want is peace of mind with the real deal go right ahead. If you want the same look for a more reasonable price do what I did. I have had NOTHING but excellent comments/critisicms by people who witness it in person. Not one bad comment up to date. These a are solid and thick overlays with STRONG adhesive that will last you a lifetime if taken care off. Trust me fellas. You WONT be dissapointed with the product. From one man to another. I will be replying to all inboxes. Ask anything and I will try to answer asap. Danny

Though I don't care for the CF trend, I don't see why you should pay for "real" cf if its just an overlay and looks the same as this. It's not like you're saving weight on your dash

real CF is not an overlay. That is the point that I have tried to make here. real carbon fiber is just like fiberglass. you mold it, clear it etc. This kit is a simulated sticker. it does not give the appearance of real carbon fiber. everyone is so bent about the price and refuses to listen to what others are trying to say here. simple fact is if you like it then go for it. simple as that. I paid for the real deal because you can tell a difference in feel and sight and when I did go the sticker route at first before anyone started producing a quality product I had this kit. and from my experience there are only certain pieces that look good enough to go on my car the rest went to the trash. At the end of the day it is each persons decision what they put on their car. All I have tried to do here is give people a honest opinion on this and allow them to make a decision. I jsut hope those those serious about wanting to know the facts actually read the comments of those that have the products and not take someones opinion that does not know the differences. now I am done trying to help on this thread so carry on.

i mean guys.. does this honestly look like this? just my . probably not needed. i just kinda feel added cf stikers to a $40k car is making it feel so much cheaper than it should feel. hell, i even tried di-noc on an interior piece, but quickly decided to go real cf afterwards because it looked cheap

I get what you're saying but not for nothing you took a cell pic of the fake stuff and a sex pic of the real stuff. I'm thinking about getting it just for the radio face. I haven't been able to find a real CF one for a non nav touring console, and even still if I end up getting a nav system 6 months from now i'd be out a couple hundred dollars. I'd like to see a better pic of this fake stuff.

If its not to much trouble, I'd like to get a better look at it. Maybe it will change some peoples opinions. What gets me is all the people hating on this but 2 years ago everybody was going out and wrapping everything with 3M DiNoc fake carbon fiber.

i thought i would just stick my in here since everyone is defending the stick on ones so much and hating on kelly tryna show his point. OP ive had the stick on ones on two of my previous cars. You are correct they did the job, and got me tons of compliments and saved me alota money if you dont wanna spend 2k on interior pieces then this kit is for you.... But if you want perfection and oem quality CARBON FIBER ELEMENT or CARBON SIGNAL is the way to go and to point out the whole argument about carbon signal overlays. They are indeed stuck on BUT they dont have edges because they are molded to the shape of the pieces they cover btw those photos ^^^ were taken with my cellphone just for your reference
