Carbon Fiber Seat Backs

Does anyone have any experience with Carbon Fiber seat backs on their Performance seats? RW and Mode have there own versions ($800-$900 range), and there are also a bunch to choose from on Ebay ($450 range). Wondering how fitment and finish is on the different brands.

I don't have much to add other than they look awesome. I just picture my passengers in the back sh*it kicking them with their shoes though, that's why I haven't tried a set yet.

Hi, I am from Macau and should be pretty far from you. I got it directly from a agent from DarwinPro or iMP performance.

How are they installed? Snap on? Screwed on?

Next question: how are the OEM seat backs held on? Snaps, screws, nails? Kidding on the nails.....

Are any of these replacement seat backs? I would prefer not to do stick ons.

Anyone tried the Mode Carbon? I am leaning towards them after having other products from them.

Also, are coupe and sedanperformance seats (FL) the same? When I inquired about CF seat backs from Mode Carbon, theybasked me to verfiy that they are the same.
