The board is a little stagnant, so I had to spice it up a bit, here ya go, do this mod!
I went with these guys: Billet Grille,Billet Grill,Billet Grills, Billet Grilles,Mesh Grilles,Truck Accessories,Chevy,Ford,GMC,Dodge,Cadillac,Lincoln,Toyota,Nissan
Because they said they have better quality and they did have more pieces. 37 + 6 optional for SE, but I got 42 and had 3 left over, 2 were Steering Wheel Options I could not use, (Radio Control Wheels only), and One was for X's with a Locker and VDC, (Not me)! The quality was there! Very hard to scratch! And when I cut my Key Mod Trim from the leftover parts, I could tell it was very Scratch Resistant and Real CF! So, they "talk the talk and walk the walk"! I'd go to these people again!
OK, they make this kit up fresh! It takes 10 Days at least. I missed that on their website. Anyhow it came today and took about 2 hours to install, most of that time was removing my Carbon Fiber Contact Mod, and cleaning. The stuff is high quality and packaged pretty good, I found the Instructions AFTER I installed it. They were on back of layout sheet. Anyhow, pretty easy, yea some rough spots, 3m Grips 1st time so no second chance. Fit, place, rip backing off, stick, press. Done.
The hardest part was the shifter, pretty touch and go, you have to take it apart and do some thinking, The rubber boot has to be removed and re-installed on the trim after you put CF on. Kinda tricky but you can handle it. Can you figure what piece goes where? Tip, use a marker and plan it out on the board, name each part and clean the entire dash part by part before you start. Use the Adhesive Promoter!

Ok this is a shot of the whole gambit, Man, I can't say how many pieces there were, they said it was a 37 Piece Kit, but I lost count at 42. And I had 3 left over! Notice trim around vent to left of vent, Pretty detailed! Almost too much!

I was pretty amazed they included all this, Look around even the 4x4 Control. And the Glove Box. I had to relocate my Lev-o-gage.
And some other stuff.

In this shot you can see the 4x4 better and they got all the Cup Holder and a LOT of the Shifter area! Way more than other kits! They even gave me a part for below the Heater Controls. Quite impressed! You can see a tad of the Steering Wheel Trim too.

This is a good Dash shot that shows the coverage of the Door Controls. And not seen is the panel behind where you open the door, that flat part, it's also covered. And you may see some other things. The panels below and left and right of Steering is covered too.

Look at that Shifter and Console coverage! And how do you start that X?

I personally don't like it, Carbon Fiber is way to Ricey for my liking. But - It does certainly add personalization to your X and if you like it, then that's all that matters. Nice one.
