No! No more accessories!

This is just terrible!

Since I have the other CF trim pieces, I'm going to have to get the door panel trim now, too!

And I was on the fence about the CF B-pillar trim, but now with the mirror trim, it looks like these are all future purchases, too!

I'm going to have to get a second job just to help the accessories addiction I've developed.

The leather e-brake handle matches nothing.

I've purchased several accessories from College Hills. I talked with Paul Pacek and he was very helpful in getting me the parts I needed. All accessories arrived five days after I placed the order including the arm rest. The prices are great too compared to my local dealer.

Id rather wait a little longer since theyll most likely have real CF pieces in the future. Fake CF is no good

Why all the fake carbon, it's unsulting.

I am glad there are people that think like me. All this stuff for the interior makes no sense. I can have an e-brake handle that looks like a football, a shift knob that looks like a black baseball and I can cover nearly every square inch of the interior with fake carbon fiber.

I think I am in heaven...

I LOVE the Red stitched shift knob and boot, but... again, it doesn't match anything else in the car. They NEED to come out with a matching Parking brake cover for it. If that happens, sign me up!

Indeed. Same goes with my other car. I would never purchase fake cf. TRD stuff like grills and mirror cover had the "CF look" dont know why OEM and big name companies would bother with this.

You could always redo the stiching on the steering wheel to red and go to joannes and buy fabric and rewrap the door panel area. Would like 100x better than what it is now. Ill probably being doing that later on in the future with carbon for fun.

I disagree. The car's interior was designed together for a purpose. Covering it with fabric that does not match is ridiculous and borderline ricer. Leave the interior alone.

Is it possible to have the stitching on the steering wheel redone to Red stitching? Would I go to an interior shop to have it done. That would look super sweet along with the Red stitched shift knob and boot.

The red stitching on the shift knob and boot looks kinda hot.... Especially if there's a matching steering wheel cover with red stiching as well.

I can't wait until they have chrome trim on the inside instead of the carbon fiber.
