I have just purchased some interior trim that will be with me in the next few days. The question is, the $tealers lable it as Carbon Fibre trim. What is the difference between the trim the $tealers sell and SSDDs CF Trim. Are they both carbon fibre??

The CF trim that a few of you peeps have looks quite shiny but the one im getting isnt

....so is it CF trim, or just called that as it looks like CF? :confused:

I think I have found the answer.....its actually black cube trim that I have and not CF.

That's the black cube trim. there's more CF in my belly button than on that ;)

Basically, it's just plastic, covered in patterned aluminium, the pattern gives it CF effect, but that's it.

Teddy sells the same parts with CF on it. Again, still a plastic base, but with a CF and lacquered overlay
