What Metal said above, E6Carbon or Carbon-Addict

My tail overlays from E6Carbon fit pretty much perfect. the roof 'katana blades' (I know this doesn't apply for your vert) from CarbonAddict did not fit so well but this seems to be an ongoing thing with that piece.

Not sure if they're the same company/vendor but they sell a lot of similar/same items.

How are the tail light covers installed? Any disassembly required?

Goes right over the top of the 'chrome' piece. No disassembly required. Comes with 3m tape included on the piece so you just have to clean the area, stick on, done.

Overlay. It's real carbon fiber.

Is it from Carbon-Addicts? Do you like it? Would you recommend this? Any advice? I like it for the top chrome, front spindle, lower rear bumper area and light covers.

Thanks,

So there are two vendors. Carbon Addicts and E6 Carbon, while they carry similar and same items, in my experience: E6 Carbon is actually far better overall in terms of quality, customer service and pricing.
Carbon Addict for me the only positive thing I would say is shipping was a little faster.

I have parts from both vendors and overall though I would say the tail light overlay is a recommended item, katana roof blades are optional but I put them on, same with the mirror trim piece shown above.

Spindle grill surround and exhaust finishers would also look good too, I just haven't gotten to it yet, though I don't know if I will, as I teeter on between "less is more", while wanting it all to look fairly uniform but not boring, nor overly done.

Looks like they are $100 on ebay. Not a big deal but do you have a link to a $50 version?
