that looks really good. How long did it take? Are they actual pieces or overlays?

It take me about a hr front and back there are 36 pieces total and there are overlays, it cover all, front and back to including the cup holder on the center. They fit perfect the quality is good and is real carbon fiber and the price was only 310 ship vs 200 for the oem 6 pieces of fake carbĂłn.

Yeah is a great upgrade and the interior pops up and for the platinum and luxury guys they have it on many wood finish and colors. I chose the carbon fiber because i want more sport racing look .

"Carbon fiber" has a reputation of having issues in the heat over time, according to my car afficienado business partner.

I was thinking of getting a wood kit at carid like your brand. Being near palm springs, I have concern on any overlays since I do not have an availalbe garage space in my home.....

The dark custom tint has been great, but sun and heat together... I have not found anyone with answers on long term effects. thx

Will i had my for a wile am in AZ temps over 100 car stays in the garage went am home,at work stays out side so far no issues and i have the rear roof carbon fiber wing and door pillars as will. I know cheap carbon hoods don’t like the heat they turn yellow , but if you get a high quality it will not.

The carbon fiber trim definitely compliments the SR. For the SL/Platinum, I think the wood grain trim adds a lot of class to the interior cabin (IMO, of course)!
