It not strip. It the real DRL LED light bar. I used JB weld stick to extended the lenght then used chrome blackout tape to hint the two different color due to different material. I'm think of using carbon fiber tape next time.

Here's the close up pictures of the parts. I didn't have to tap into the factory wiring. I used the DRL harness relay auto on/off. The light turn on automatic when key is in on position and turn off when the key is in off position.

Absolutely and also carbon fiber for the dash center completely cover from the cup holder and everything in between down to the hand brake. Since this is the real carbon like factory material (not overlay). I don't not if it will stick on well, so Ken from Slkstore is sending me an example for me to look t.

Yeah....I also think it look better too based on that picture. It very easy to do if I ever want to. I can just use the same stuff and cover up the foglight cover completely then paint it black.
