Yea i made these strut covers. I work with carbon fiber for a living, so i am kind of skilled in that area. Mine are by far better than the Carbon-by-Design version. Mine are directly bonded to the actual strut cover. There is no velcro to attach them, i thought that was kind of cheesy and a rip off in my opinion.

Re: carbon fiber strut covers

Hehe. I'm kind of passively watching these things. I'm already buying enough "official" accessories to raise the cost of my car as is. I need to save some stuff for later =P

Re: carbon fiber strut covers

That's great! Nice work... I'd like to see a carbon fiber dash plate cover in the instrument cluster surround. You know, where the concept had brushed aluminum and was relagated to a blank canvas for the production car.

BTW... what would it set me back for some custom strut covers?
