So let me get this straight... They are replacement pieces, not just overlays... Correct? Also, people are pissed because the carbon fiber has some red fibers in it? I think that's quite fitting for the Type R. The interior looks good to me, but the problem with exterior carbon fiber is the resin tends to haze over time due to UV exposure. That would be my only gripe.
nope - just overlays

when I do get them, I'm prolly ceramic coating them as well, and yes, the interior piece are just overlaid on.

I'm not sure that's right.

People don't have to have money to express their opinion - the pics invite feedback. Nobody is forcing anyone to buy or not buy, some people think it looks bad - that's ok. No need to get fired up over it.
understood, but are those that just trolls...I think they were just beating down the real stuff so they can justify getting cheap chinese stuff. Hey it's ok to save a few bucks; just don't tell people that did spend good$$$ that their stuff looks fake. I personally have no issues with people who wants that less expensive stuff.

EDIT: now that the Seibon carbon body kit is out...those are not cheap also, so lets see what these trolly will say now.

My reaction was the same, but they do look good tho!
Yeah they look really good, but now I wont be buying them now that I know that they are just stick on's rather than replacement, especially for the price.

I'll just wait and see the price on the other carbon bits from Seibon. $2498.56 AUD is way too much for the middle peice of the OEM wing.

I think you maybe just need to be a little less concerned with what people on the internet think, troll or not. If you like it, it's ok if someone else thinks it looks crappy- cause you like it remember :)

Dude the only Troll here is you. Assuming people don't have money because they have an opinion (And im not even one of those peps who said it looks cheap.) The shit is pathetic bro, in fact you still crying about this shit makes me laugh. And for the record I bet all of Seibon lips are replacements, not fucking 3m taped overlays. :D

Bro, I don't "assume" people don't have $$$ ... I fact, I think they have a lot of $$$$... it is just couple of those cheap trolls who like to talk shit about the product that people buys with their HARD EARN $$$$. That's all Bro! I'm not here to look down on anyone. I'm just hoping some of these trolls would think before they open their mouths.
