Not one problem up to date. Excellent quality. Remin makes them in various carbon fiber colors. I oredered yhrough carid.com. I will warn you, they took about two mknths for it to come In. It was worth the wait though.

Not bad at all. What did it run? Carbon signal wants $500 for their carbon fiber kit and Evor wants about $900 for their carbon fiber kit. Which I found to be ridiculous and did not offer it in any other colors.

just so everyone knows this is not real carbon fiber. this is a stick on overlay that gives the appearance of whatever it is replicating. it is a flexable plastic sticker of sorts. does not look bad but is not to be compared with the stuff that carbon fiber element and carbon signal does. so dont try to compare apples to oranges.

I just checked it out for myself. It’s a steal over the vendors.
$101.40 with free shipping will get you the main kit seen here REMIN® - Main Kit - 2011 Nissan 370Z Dash Kit. Lots of colors, layouts and carbon fibers to choose from. $27.30 will get you the exterior kit seen here REMIN® - Exterior Kit - 2011 Nissan 370Z Exterior Trim. The exterior kit im not to fond of looks a lil cheezy but posted it regardless.

27.30 would only get you the b pillars. You would still need to add the gas cap and front bumper lip overlays. Thats a seperate charge.

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

i just feel like this screams "i didnt have the money for real cf". honda guys have been doing this trick for 10 years, and imo it looks like an adhesive that someone bought online. it looks good is subjective... this is like 300c guys saying that their cars look like a phantom... yea until you see a real phantom. it will trick the lay person, but ANY real car person will know what they are looking at.

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
