Self adhesive with 3M backing tape Real Carbon Fiber material.
Seriously?



You'd pay to stick tape that has "real carbon fiber material" in it onto your car? They should go well with stick-on fender vents, self-adhesive hood pins and blow-off valve sound imitators.

How much would it cost to put actual carbon fiber in those pillars? Not much more I think

Seems out of place. I mean...why would that be carbon fiber? Just because?


Granted, i know your stockers are damaged, but i wouldn't go this route

IMO, this would be definitely your cheapest bet, and I don't think it looks bad. To each his own though, do what you want to your car.

It'd look good with a CF theme, but bad alone IMO

Without a lot of other CF on the car those will look very out of place.
