Default Carbon fiber trims

I'm getting real carbon fiber trims with exchange of my core should I keep my stock trims and pay extra $200. Can I sell my car with carbon fiber trims or it would be better to sell my car with the stock wood trims in the future?

Youd be better off selling the carbon trim and putting stock back in in the future. If it's real carbon and not vinyl wrap, it's worth more than $200.

What they want is when I buy the carbon fiber trims its OEM lexus trim with overlay real carbon fiber with top coat just like those carbon fiber hoods they want my wood trim in exchange plus $550 for the carbon fiber trim but if I decide to keep my wood trim I would have to pay extra of $200 so total of $750 and I get to keep my wood trim. But if I don't keep my wood trim I only pay for the carbon fiber trims which is $550 with exchange of my wood trims.

Ok guys I have two choices the company I'm getting the real carbon fiber trims from can also do the silver carbon fiber or the black carbon fiber which would look best with my car. My interior is all black would the silver carbon look better or the black carbon fiber? He can make it exactly like the ISF silver carbon fiber.
