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

CF looks great! Not a fan of red, but does look quality. I've been dropping all kinds of $$ lately on my Z, and I'll upgrade to full black CF replacement pieces in the new year. Here are some pics I thought I'd share of a Carid CF kit I have on my Lexus IS (it fit very well):

I know exactly what your talking about and I agree. I will get some different angles for you as soon as I get a chance.

Your Carbon Fiber looks amazing. Can't take that away from you. Honestly...I don't even know why I find myself going back and forth about the real carbon fiber with some of you guys. I posted these pictures up because I know there has been several guys asking about the quality and fit of these particular kits. I'm helping out the guys with those questions, this is what this thread was created for nothing else. I thought about getting some red carbon fiber as well. Looks good

Looks nice! Bet you it made your interior look a whole lot cleaner as well. Good choice

i know that you created this for that reason, i can tell your a nice guy through your replies and such.... I just thought id help elaborate on kelly's point because the other guys that replied basically just bashed his point... especially that "o give me the same lightning and camera comment" that interior of the ebrake is mine so i thought id show cell phone pics of my interior with just a plain jane camera

thats all

It all boils down to what can you afford & what you intend to do with the car.

I can't afford a 6,000.00 interior. Until I can Stickers may be away to get the look on the cheap, but I would much rather tell someone my interior is real CF.

This is a touchy subject for people cause the cost. I'm poor and proud of it, stickers fine for me
