are you sure about that ,did jeff actually tell you that , for i look very closely at the pieces i have and it does not look painted furthermore i called the co out in WI and they too confirmed it was a carbon like material affixed to the surface shrinked down sealed and clearcoated

i know its not real carbon fiber , but who cares , they look real nice as a alternative to painting esp on our black cars with the eng bays in black looks real dead , but these pieces liven it up

Not again . My bad what I meant to say was that there not real CF like the Abflug pieces but are a vinyl pattern that covers your OEM parts than clearcoated like the faux aluminium. Correction they are not PAINTED lol.

Jeffs Qoute:
They are enhanced, clear coated oem parts....unfortunately, there are no CF replacement parts for the GS4...that I know of anyhow. I wanted something a little different than the painted route that alot of people go, clearcoated CF pattern that matches my RMM enging cover...yeah, that'll work. As far as price goes, I will shoot you a PM.
