Not sure what you mean? The dash fit is the one I don’t like, it sticks out in the top a bit I wish it was a more rounded molded type look. The window switches are fine.

Your standards must be pretty low to consider this awful fitment "fine"

No need for insults. It is basically a decal overlay really. Not a pop off the plastic piece and replace it with a actual carbon fiber piece. Am I am thrilled with the fit? No. But as a inexpensive overlay I understood this might be how it looked. THAT is why I said its fine. The dash fit is worse and I more than likely will be taking it off. So you want to buy them from me???

Yea for body panels, hoods, etc. I don't think anyone doing carbon trim pieces is really looking to reduce weight. Probably like the appearance.

If you install these parts, like the shifter console cover, and later decide you don't like
the looks, can it be easily removed without damage to the original trim pieces?


Thanks!

Is the radio bezel a close enough match the GM OEM dash CF piece?

Does the cover hinder the signal quality for Sirius/XM radio?
