Sure, no problem,
Most came from www.dbcarbon.com The vent cap & ovals for the vents came from www.macarbon.com

Definitely looking to do the carbon handles and door pockets, nice subtle touch to the interior.

Until they crack that is. The OEM CF interior parts were known to crack over time, especially in warmer climates. I saw this in a number of cars I was considering for purchase back in the day. I strictly opted for one without those flourishes because of that.

Anyone know if these aftermarket pieces from dbcarbon.com and such hold up better?
