Definitely DO NOT buy these. They aren't real carbon fiber, they are just plastic with the generic carbon fiber pattern printed on them just like the cheap M3 mirrors and gauge pillar pods you can buy at auto zone. They look like crap in person and the pattern fades away, save your money. I'm a big fan of College Hills but this is a garbage product.

College Hills doesn't make any products, they are a dealership. That fake carbon fiber print always fades/peels. I guess I don't understand the attraction to stick on carbon fiber. It's one thing if you're replacing a piece with a carbon fiber part but when you're just sticking a cover on top of something it kind of defeats the purpose, especially when it's just a print and not the actual material. But… to each their own, not trying to be negative, just giving my recommendation.
