i kinda read the japanese text on the site saying it used the "water copying" technology to get the CF pattern on to the original trim

This is probably the same technique as http://www.elegantwooddesign.com/index2.html

You send them your original parts and they will "print" on the graphics for you (carbon fiber, wood..). It's obviously just a print, but the images look good and it should be a perfect fit since it's the OEM pieces (unlike stick-ons)

That's horrible, if your going CF go with a full replacement

The problem is that there is no such thing as a real CF replacement pieces. They are all stick on. So you either have stick on or painted.

no one can tell is not CF once its clear coated. i bet it would still be cheaper getting it "printed" then getting full replacement

i think this is the same process on how our wood trim and other car's wood trim is done.

but i'm tending towards dark wood or marble.... dark wood would be suitable... but a bit normal. since dark wood is on alot of cars already. i'm also afraid marble would stand out too much.
