The only product I’ve seen on this forum is their front sport lip for the M sport equipped G05 purchased by a few members.
Now, I was very skeptical about buying this trim as overlays are often CF “style” or just plain tacky.

Judge for yourself. The trim arrived in a well padded and double boxed. The trim pieces are very thin but not translucent. Because they are thin, they do feel slightly flexible. They all looked incredible. Fitment so far is spot on but I’ve only tested a few pieces. Have not fully applied them yet but I’m very excited to install when I have time. Are they the same as OEM? Nothing ever will be hit it’s pretty darn close.
Purchase: Via eBay and negotiated with seller for a lower price. Retails for $750ish.

Very nice! Very nice indeed. I'm considering an overlay for my 2021 45e (M Sport). I'm partial to the Tetragon and CF. That said, may I ask how the overlay is holding up? Thanks...

It’s not plastic overlay ( clearly fake CF that you see on cheap cell phone cases and what not).
