Ya ya ya... Appearance is my lowest priority on the EVO.. BUT I had hail damage and it was cheaper to get a lid/hood in CF than to fix/replace with stock parts. I think it would help the look of the rear to get one [/justification]


( ps there is some gap on the trunk... still working on fixing that :\ )

The CARBOTRIX CF Plate holder does fit great. We have never had a complaint. Buy one then if there is a problem you can complain to us.

CF stuck on the car never really worked for me, but that looks pretty good.

Got my Carbign Craft one yesterday in the mail. It doesn't fit properly, just like the pictures posted earlier in the thread. Significant gaps towards the top part, as the curvature of the upper lips do not match those of the actual recessed area of the license cutout.

Might have to try the one that goes completely around the license area...

I had that same problem. I just grinded the edges down just enough to get it to fit (where the carbign craft piece curves at the top).

Same issue here. Just received it today. Doesn't even come close to fitting. Curvature of upper lips is way off. There's even a raised lip on the inside edge of the curvature which prevents it from sitting flush. The depth is also off, which makes it stick out from the bumper about 1/8". Definitely does not fit like the one pictured on their website. I'm returning this thing.
