I believe your cf trim kit is the one from Asia if I am not mistaken.

Could you tell me if it fits really nicely where the shifter is? I notice that the shifter has zig zags and there are very tight spots. I would like to know if the CF trim will fit just as good and fully cover the OEM trim.

Thanks for sharing.

So is all the grey (original trim) covered from the sides? I am looking at the last pic and I think I can see the Silver from the original trim about 1/4" worth. Or is that an illusion?

I need to know how the fitment is right where it meets the interior pieces? Any pics or comments on that?

Also, how much is it raised up over stock? e.g. how thick are the overlays?

you can look up FXauto in the vendor section they sell all the oem pieces in real carbon fiber not an overlay, you just need to swap your original pieces for the new ones. i think that would be better then wrapping it or using the ebay overlay, i have the ebay one and im not 100% happy with it, the center console fitment isnt that good.
