I installed the individual pieces I ordered. I will inspect it another day for adjustment if needed.

I had no issues installing with the double-sided tape. Very easy to lift up and align. Just wipe down the surface beforehand.

First impression? I love it! I am wrapping the door trim ( as seen in picture still has stock trim). CF wrap is $18...The 4 pieces if ordered was $125cdn.

Fit and finish almost perfect.

I got from Ali-express. There are various sellers of the same product. They are all made in same factory. It took about a month to arrive in Canada. Was well packaged too!

I thought I could wrap door trim piece by just removing it with trim tool. But found out the door panel needs to be taken off. I just ordered the door trim also.

Probably best to order from
That same vendor as well as the carbon fiber weave or pattern could be different if you wrapped it yourself.

Just received my door trim pieces in CF. All the stock trim is now covered. Very happy with results.

I just installed mine. I had the same exact dash color "ash" as bubbahead. Mine looks exactly like what bubba posted only I have executive package and it looks very good with the crystal controls. Maybe I will post some pictures if you guys want.

Hi, I'm wondering where I can buy the carbon fiber interior trim for my x5 m50i. It's only available on x6 as an option though...I believe the upcoming x5 m should have it as an option..
We can order the Carbon fiber kit in Belgium on the X5 ( 50e ).

The fit was almost perfect. You would have to look very close to see anything that might be suspect. I couldn't really find anything and it went on very nicely.

Looks great!

LOL I just noticed bubbahead's user avatarbubbahead that your trim goes top to bottom left to right and My trim goes Bottom to Top left to right.

Funny stuff both look great.

Hello guys, I'm in the UK and really want a cf interior trim has anyone found a rhd version of the trim covers?
08-12-2023
It looks like you can specify RHD with the original seller and they will supply it accordingly. I guess they have HK too with the same “issues” so should be able to cater for RHD market.

I Wanted to post pics of the Ali Express carbon fiber trim which i purchased based on this thread.

Please take a close look at the pictures from from PNWM50I compared to bubbahead. PNW50i has actual texture and weave compared to the ali express which appears to have a printed on grain pattern on the light grey elements (nothing on the darker elements). Overall looks like plastic.

Also note that PNWM50I grain pattern on the console and dash goes up from drivers thigh and continues thru the passenger side front windshield as does the factory option, whereas the ali express goes up from drives thigh at the console, but the dash trim pattern goes from drivers windshield down to glove box.

Fit on my 2021 45e is not as good as bubbahead, photos attached where you can see the underlying factory trim peeking out from the edges pretty much everywhere. The console drawer handle is a completely different shape

It's also thick af. Overall I think is cheap garbage. I hope this is helpful.

Mine was roughly $700 and well worth it. Product has been issue free and looks new today. The weavebon the pics posted recently looks nothing like real CF.

How thick is the material? Does it seem to bulge up and stick out? I was thinking vinyl wrap would be thinner and more natural feel?
