That one on L-Tuned Parts is made by FABULOUS.

As for the wheels, that has already been answered on Page One.

My mistake. It was on his other post for his car. I thought it was the same one.

Sorry those wheels are Advan Kreuzer Series V

The CF kit Mark has, it made by another company here that makes dash kits also. Not sure what the name of the company is.

I'm all for making your car your own by personalizing it, but I've never understood nor been a fan of adhesive *anything* - wood trim, decals, carbon fiber, etc. I just don't understand the appeal, and I don't understand why anyone would do that to a high-class sports car such as a BMW or Lexus - the car stands on its own merits just fine.

To each his own though. If you like it, that's all that matters. And props for posting the info for others who may be considering it.

Thanks for your thoughts, but if aftermarket companies had customers with this type of attitude, they'd all go out of business and there would be no reason for the aftermarket industry all together. By the way, emblems, moldings, etc are all held on by adhesive....not of fan of those either? J/K ..... Like I said, this mod is not for everyone.....but that's OK.
