Carbon fiber battery covers off ebay - OVERLAYS! stupid me

So I ordered these as the desc said they were real CF battery covers. That's what the seller said too until I get them today and when they are really overlays with 3m adhesive tape.

I clearly asked the seller if they were CF covers and not overlays.

Man I am sooo pissed off!

yeah.. but it also says in huge letters 100% carbron fiber

sorry about that. that's what pisses me off about ebay.. the huge amount of lying/deceit/bs and the absolutely ridiculous shipping charges.

i saw the tape part and thats why I asked the seller if it was real carbon fiber. I hope it was a mistake and they sent me the wrong part. If not, I dont care to stick them on my car - they look and feel like a cheap mouse pad!

u can easily tell in the photos that they are overlays. look exactly the same as the UT overlays and half the price!

no you can't from the photos - they show full covers not the overlays.
