Thanks. I'll do that.

I do need to replace the inner side of the handle in the driver's door as there's some wear, do they sell both pieces?

No need to replace the inner handles into your car, if you remove the covers carefully with a plastic spatula, the material should receive no noticeable damage.
The handle covers got usually sold as pairs, have a look at ebays, e.g. here and here.

I appreciate the info so far on this. Any possibility of snapping a few close up shots shots of the RKP style spoiler? Is the carbon weave good too?

I've been eyeing this type spoiler for a bit now. Just gotta convince the wife after spending almost 60k out the door already.

The weave looks good imo. Not sure if you can zoom in on this shot. I'll take a few more up close once I wash the car for the weekend.

Looks like it's sold out but you could ask if they are going to restock.

The link 2 posts directly above is for the F83/F33, so it is for the Convertible trunk rather than the F80/F82.

Person asking lists an f80 in their profile, hence my response.

Saw a few steering wheel recommendations in the thread, some of the links expired. I was also wondering how they held up over time for those of you that got one. Some of them seem like a steal compared to other ones on the market.

Anyone got any steering wheel recs?

So for the lightweight lip, I'd pass on it. It seems that there's a lot more work involved to try and get it mounted and I'm sure there's better options out there


As for the splitters fitment is 8/10. On the right side there's a very small gap which you'd only notice if you searched for it. It's minor but enough of an irritation if you're a perfectionist.

I also included a roof shot case, at least to me, the splitters seems to be a very very close match to the carbon roof, and I personally can't seem to find a difference

The splitters look pretty good! As for the lip what do you think it would have taken to get it mounted? It looks like there isn’t a center post for support for one…

Honestly I feel it isn't worth it. As you mentioned there's no center post. And it also seems to be too wide for the car.

The Aliexpress CF seat inserts ended up being of really high quality

Real carbon fiber, perfect fitment and great price. 1/3 of the price of alternatives, and I dare to say the same quality.

Pictures look good, pricing is even better, anywhere from 50-80% less than traditional retailers (whom some I suspect straight up dropship from here)

Around 300$ for seat rear carbon shells, 15$ for door handle trim and 30$ for dct surround carbon bit





Did you install the door level handles and seat shells? How’s the fitment and comparison to oem 2x2 weave?

Edit:just noticed you wrote about seat shells, so it matches oem cf weave? If so might pull the plug but more interested in the full seat shell versions if they offer it?
