Has anyone ever discovered a shop/etsy seller which sells carbon fob covers?

But this is a local online store, and it only ships to Singapore (where I am)

I managed to find this on eBay

Hope that helps!

I bought from T-Carbon. They have their own website, but I found they also sell on Amazon. The quality is top notch. Unfortunately, the carbon fiber must weaken or partially block the signal from the key to the car. During my first drives with the carbon cover, I got errors saying something like key not recognized. I don’t remember the exact error. I’d move the key inside my pocket and the error would go away.

It got annoying so I contacted the company. They wouldn’t take it back, but gave me a discount code to buy something else. They acknowledged the carbon fiber can block the signal, but their glass fiber covers don’t have that issue. I still haven’t ordered a glass fiber replacement. Something I need to do since they do have a quality product. I’d just buy from Amazon next time so I can easily get a refund if there’s an issue.

Not real carbon, but no one will be able to tell the difference.

I purchased one from the dealer then bought one on Amazon for a fraction of the price the dealer charged. You cannot tell the difference once they are installed on the key fob.

@defiant2 , Please share pictures of the dash cam, grill guards, and wind blockers once you've installed.
