You know true replacements would be over 1K. Have you removed your Shifter console? The shifter console is one large molded piece.

The kit is gorgeous. Let me know if a GB opens. I will consider it.

To anyone who does this... if you have wood trim let me know. I will pay $60 and swap with you for just the 4 window switch trims.

Will the center air vent surround, A/C control surround, and Radio surround pieces be available in this kit?

Hey Luis, we already talk about this save me one please. Also the Tom's lower brace front and rear and 6 links. The carbon fiber will go nicely with the rest of the carbon fiber I have on my car.

the carbon fiber trim looks fantistic, however, there are few minor imperfections, but according to its price and quality, i m very excited and happy to buy this one.

because the ISF original Sliver could cost more than 1K+, and it is basically the same thing, or worse. if you guys look at photos clearly that ISF has metal brace surround. which i guess they simply just re-wrap the sliver carbon fiber on top the original trim, but they also realise a problem that they couldnt fit the sliver carbon perfectly on the edge, so they just simply put a metal brace on top to cover this flaw.

Therefore, as the problem is so minor, so i will save my money for other body kit and stuff lol.

I am on this sliver trim

Has anyone thought of using light window tint to mask the wood dash trim? This will give the illusion of the ash wood trim found on the Jaguars.

Default Gb Thread Is Up

Alright guys, GB thread is up and posted in the Vendors Forum. We put up the best possible price we could, and included free shipping with the kit as well. Shipping should start as soon as we get the kits in about 2-3 weeks.

Luis, thanks for the GB .... just looked at the order screen and I don't see where to select between the silver or black CF. I hesitated to put in the credit card info without knowing if I was ordering the silver or black. Can you confirm how the order screen works for color selection? Thanks again.

We have a comment section on the order form where you can put in your preference of either Black or Silver CF kit, thank you!
