C63 Coupe CF Trim Install

I ordered a set of CF trim and a CF shift knob from Matt recently. It took a little longer than I would have liked to arrive but the quality is top notch and Matt was great about keeping me posted on the progress.

Installing the shift knob was a breeze but I plan on installing the trim this weekend. There are 5 trim pieces: 2 side door panels, 2 panels by the seat adjusters, and 1 center console trim.

I've been trying to find a DIY for a coupe trim install but have come up short. I saw a DIY on a pre-facelift sedan but wanted to know if anyone here had any insight into the process for a coupe. I was hoping it would be a simple pop out and pop in process but the 2009 DIY appears far more involved requiring me to remove door panels and such.

I'd appreciate any insight or tips any members here can share on the process. Thanks!

This is a good start! It's the door panels that I'm most concerned with...thanks for the clip!!

BTW will you be at the Mode Carbon meet tomorrow? If so, I look forward to meeting you in person.

Jason, this is for a 09 sedan but it should be the same for the door trims

Hi Guys,

I cannot sell any products on the forum because I am not a sponsor/vendor here.
I am planning to become a sponsor as soon as I get all issues with my supplier sorted out.
If you wish to contact me, please send me an email to: olszowa12@wp.pl

Cheers,
Matt

Matt products & service are top notch. Definitely worth the wait.

BK, the facelift model should be the same in terms of popping the door panel out. It's not complicated but a long process as u have to take ur time to pull at the right spot (where the push pins are) & make sure not to break anything.

I did mine in maybe 3 hours total.
