Are they really charging that much for the 2 strips that go down the sides of your console? Or do you get a whole new center console for that much?

That's crazy. I bought my car used and mine are scratched up so I went to the dealership last weekend to see how much it would be to replace those strips. $51 a piece, I didn't think that was bad at all but damn the CF ones aren't worth it.

Yes, you are correct. That price is insane for faux carbon fiber.

Too bad they aren't real carbon fiber: that would save .05 pounds and shave about .0001 second off the quarter mile... and that would be worth it...
