this guy is beating me

I'll just forget the rest pieces and buy those from him

I will still make the grill, lip (2 design so far) and diffuser

When will euroteck come out with their lip? I assume they will be similar to those on the E55 and C55?

trunk chrome is one thing that guy can make real easy. It's just a strip of carbon which doesnt need to be thick nor strong.

I can't wait to see your grill and lip not sure if I want to go for a diffuser as I would need quads to look right.

According to Neal from Euroteck, lip and diffuser will be out end of July. No one I know is doing the grille yet. You also might want to consider going interior. Alot of those panels I'm sure aren't that hard to fabricate and I think there's a market for them. The only other option I've seen for them have been prohibitively expensive.

Here are some pics I took with it installed. As you can see, from a distance, it doesn't look like CF at all, but as you get closer or if the light hits it just right, you'll see it's CF. The only issue I have is the original top part kinda curves inward and there's a gap between it and the rubber molding. The CF pillar doesn't curve in, so you can kinda see it's not a pillar replacement, but a stick on. It's not that noticeable unless you know what you're looking for though. The bottom and sides are perfectly flush with the rest of it.
