Exactly. Probably even less than 5 minutes. I have a big roll of those CF in my apartment and I wrap almost everything plastic in my car that I can take off.

He's selling you a sticker that you apply to your own smart key when you receive it.

If you take off the parts and wrap them over so the edge doesn't stay on the side it'll look fine. Looks just like matte carbon fiber.

Our key fob has cracked on the unlock button and probably will fail completely soon. I hate to pay $150 for a new one when the electronics are fine. I have not attempted to disassemble it to see if the housing can be replaced. Have not seen those "replacement" keys on E- bay lately but $10 would be a bargain if I can reuse the housing and trash the electronics. The CF cover only works on the back?
BTW my friends 2008 Dodge Charger bought NIB from a local dealer for $14,100 driveaway (v-6 and apparently not too desireable) has what looks like the identical fob / ignition set up.
