Here's my cf door handle and some other cfed stuff.
Just wondering brabusant, would you be able to hook me up if I wanna get some stuff cf overlayed? The place that I got my stuff overlayed is kinda too pricey, and I lost contact with that person.

Hey Ant, count me in on any cf parts you can help with. I wish I would have jumped on Phil's euro license plate insert. I also love the mirror covers and trunk spoiler, so I'm in on any parts you coordinate having covered.
Thanks, Erin

Yes can help you out. The person I deal with is in Taiwan so the more people in the more i can save shipping the stuff out. I am actually trying to get my center armrest and a 05+ OEM grill covered now. Just let me know. I will probably be shipping some stuff there next week.

How much for the center armrest? I wanted to do the top of the armrest and the door handles. Can you give me a price for all 5? Thanks.

Wsup Greg,

The door handles are $140 and depending on how many people are in, we need to split the shipping cost to ship them to Taiwan and the shipping cost for them to come back. The armrest, i am still talking to them, they need me to ship them the top of the armrest to them. So need to see how i can remove it. I hope i am not going to get in trouble and banned for this. I have a pic of the armrest, let me look for it and post it up. I have your email i will email you tomorrow.

Ok, thanks. Also I have my window modules that need to be wrapped in silver cf. Can you get me a price on wrapping the window module pieces? Thanks a lot.

Not sure if you saw the chrome stick on vent covers on ebay, i am seeing if can cover those so i do not have to ship the vents to him. The only thing is if it sticks on it will stick out and not be flush like the normal vents. Here is a pic of the actual vents covered.

Ill be going back to taiwan in july and pick up some goodies for myself off those bid.yahoo.tw auctions. i might be able to carry some items back to US for some of you guys but I need to see the paypal money first before I buy them for ya. and then u need to wait till i come back to the states and ship them to you. and of course i won't accept returns and i'm not trying to make a profit on these either.

depends on how much you trust me and how bad you want the items i guess

well just FYI for those who REALLY want some of those and couldn't read chinese or go to taiwan

better way is to just contact them by phone if they posted their store phone number. most of the seller are from different mod shops. most are in taipei-shien tho if you don't have a car when you go back.

yea i tried to e-mail them and it seem they prefer to talk on the phone. sometimes i don't know why just didn't really trust the quality so i guess ill go see by myself in real life to decide if ill buy them or not.

and yea i drive my dad's w211 around in taipei he got another car :P

Ant-
Thanks for the help on getting the cf parts done. I definitely would like to do a few more pieces. I'm thinking the armrest and the plastic piece on the bottom alongside the front seats. Do you know how much for those pieces?

Which armrest?

Centre armest (this is what I remember):
Remove rear ash tray
Remove rear vents (pull)
Remove arm rest (pull while pushing on tabs inside the rear ash tray and vents)

I couldn't figure it out this way, so I removed the entire centre console. Its not hard, start with the shifter trim, then the ash tray, then the coin holder, cupholder bottom, center storage bottom, and it comes right out. I can do it in about 30 mins.

Wsup Greg, I need to examine how hard it is to the the other two side vents, I did the center vent because i swaped the center pieces and looked at the vent when it was removed and was surprised how easy it was to remove it. I am still trying to get the center armrest off, i will try the instructions below and see if i can pull it out.
