heres a pic of my cut one.... not the prettiest thing, or cut how id like it, but i had to do with while it was attached to the car so i had to be careful and could only cut off so much... had i done it off the car id have cut it on the seam where the antenna cover met the vg, more like how the fq one looks.

Try any Auto body supply store. they will def have it. Or if you have a friend that works in auto body they can def order it for you from there supplier. They can usually get it same day. GL. I was looking into getting one too. But now I'm just going to wait until a better one comes out.

Carbon is nice, but if any of these vendors were smart they would be making these in FRP and pre-painted like they do for the VIII and IX. Rexpeed?? I know you're listening...

I had to use a heat gun to make it fit properly, because the roof is rounded and this piece is straight as an arrow, but the antenna part still won't stick to the roof, and I no longer have satellite radio signals. I am going to have to reheat it to peel it off, and cut around the seams of the antenna cover, make a trip to the autobody supply to get some 3M tape, and reinstall it to get my Sirius radio signal back. It's disappointing to say the least.

Eh I don't care anymore. It's only sticking up less than 1cm now. I'm planning on switching it out eventually for the OEM FQ360 VG, but not any time soon.
Before the foam it was just horrid, though. The fitment is so atrocious I probably should have returned it.

All I can say is the fitment of the VG sucks! but you can still make it look right:
