Here is the original trim of Sliver carbon fiber of ISF, you couldnt see much differences, but the price is just around 1/4 of original Sliver carbon fiber trim.

i reckon this is your choice, cuz i m not going to pay that much for a real thing since here is a good substitution. so i could afford to buy something else with extra money i saved on real thing

I'll be sticking with my wood trim. IMO, stick-on carbon fiber dash kits belong on civics and the like, not on luxury cars. I've never seen it in person so it might look okay, but it's still not for me.

i understand your point, but E46 and E90 also have those stick-on Carbon fiber, even AC officiallly launch those Sliver carbon fiber trim with premium price. i think it is around 1.5k USD.

Civic, just another wanna be like BMW, and IS is matching with BMW.
another point, is come on man, i m driving Lexus IS350, how dare you compare our LEXUS to CIVIC, at least BMW for a start line lol

I'm not comparing your Lexus to a Civic. I'm saying BECAUSE you drive a Lexus IS350, don't ruin it by adding a stick-on carbon fiber dash kit (something often seen on a civic).

Like I said though, I've never seen the kit and this is just my opinion. Its your car, do what you like.

i dont think we'd be putting on a stick-on kit if it looked like it goes on a civic... the comparisons with that on the IS-F are pretty similar and most of the people that have seen it in person or have it already said it looks great, not cheap.
