First they try and sell a painted peice of plastic for over $300, now $1000 for less than a square foot of carbon fiber (which looks to be fake)... you've got to be kidding
^^ Do you mean the OEM painted IS Silver/Gunmetal Trim??
Those parts actually do cost well over $300...
The reason for the high cost on the silver trim is because you actually get a whole new center console piece with shifter indicator and cupholder.. The 4 door switches and ash tray cover are not that expensive individually.
Now moving on to the parts in question. This certainly reminds me of painted or CF Style platic finishing... found on the TRD IS300 racing grill.
A bit too pricey if thats the case..
Is anyone interested in a Brand New OEM Bird's Eye Maple Wood Interior for the IS?? Its out of 2008 with 0 miles on it.. it's valued over $1,000
Amazing that the old, real, high quality kit was $370 when I bought it in Jan '07, and now this kit is $1,000 and it looks to be a CF print job and not a real weave. This kit would have to be in the $300 range to even be considered a reasonable value.

Just an FYI, it appears that these are replacements (like the silver trim), not overlays like what Carson used to sell.
I don't know who told you a supercharger is $2k cause its not...
oops! I was thinking about the supercharger they have on ebay for the other days for is300...the actual price is for our car is at least 5,000. Thanks for correcting
I'm surprised that a FAKE product is being sold from a reputable establishment... I would expect that from someone on eBay... but not a company that gets a LOT of our business as Lexus owners. It's one thing if they want to call it Carbon Fiber STYLE, but not trying to passing it off as genuine carbon fiber...
