I still gotta put on my brand spanking new Apexi S1 Coilovers (first in the US to get due to a sponsorship deal) and finish my headliner.

The CF kit that you sold, were those pieces stuck or glued onto the existing trim pieces? What didn't you like about that kit that made you sell it at such a steep loss?
Anyway, the price you came up with sounds like a bit much (and I've no experience in removing my doors) and sight unseen, I really don't have any idea as to how durable this CF look wrap will hold up over time. My trim pieces rattle like nobody's business though, and wrapping them like you've done seems like that'd decrease the likelihood of rattling to a certain degree.
The pictures look fantastic though... would you be willing to come down in price at all or possibly even ship a swatch to 60614 so I could get an idea for how the material would hold up/ wear?
Thanks.

Yes the wrap could help with the rattling because it makes all the pieces a little bit thicker. Its pricey because it takes really long to do and materials cost a lot. Like I said, I am perfectionist so you can expect top quality work. It takes at least an hour to hour and half per piece.
