It fits totally fine. Lines are lazier cut and fit like an adhesive would. It does not wrap around corners like a true carbon fiber piece would though. This is the mid level of carbon interior pieces in my mind. The sticker, cf wit adhesive, and true carbon fiber wrapped pieces. You get what you pay for and just look at the Fitment in the pics I provided. I think it shows pretty good detail how it fits around the cd/radio/navigation. Where is it $185? The link provided says $241. Mine was a bit more because I have some more pieces. The home link and sunglasses area, the rear passenger air vents, and the rear passenger roof lighting.

I ordered my kit from RVINYL.com and future reference, hope no one else does. They claim its ready to put on your OEM kit.

They don't fit, all are too small, factory wood shows. The return process SUCKS. They expect for you to send pictures of EVERYTHING, not just 1 or 2 shots to show pieces don't fit. Who in their right mind will take the time to install a ENTIRE kit that doesn't fit just for pictures? I've been in process for almost 60-days now, im close to saying F it to my $40 bucks.
