To be honest it is not real CF. It is an overlay made by trimbright that I picked up at Pepboys. AS you can see it is very realistic not like the vinyl stuff that the ricers use. This is a metalic film with the CF printed on it Not as easy to shape as vinyl but looks 1000% better. Hopefully next week I will be able to show you a real CF piece here instead. Think of this as a prototype just like my grill (opps should not have mentioned that.). I have on order a sheet of CF and I will be fabricating simple parts myself. Keep an eye out and I will not go into mass production.

Looks very nice, the chrome trim CF.
But you have a black car, on which just about anything CF looks nice. I have an Arctic White, so I hesitate. I need to figure out how to take the damn strip off, so I can paint it at the same time as my grill. Anyone figure this out yet? I've been kinda poking around, pulling and tugging and such. No luck.

Hey guys ...
I just got my cf door trim pieces from Madracer and i must admit they look so cool !! I ordered earlier in the week , they arrived Thursday and installed today yay !!! To think i even did popped the pieces on myself which was super easy with the 3M taping. Now let's just hope they dont go flying off the 1st time i get on the highway
Im on my way to the jersey shore so ill try to take pics over the weekend and post. Looks great with the steel grey !!

haha, yeah, my first strip I put on without fully measuring and aligning cause I was too excited. Had that "oh ****" moment, but was able to peal it off with some effort and reapply correctly.

The pillars will take some effort to come off once yopu fully press it in place. Please post some pics I bet they look great on your car. I'll be visiting NJ in a couple of weeks.
