Default Carbon Fiber Window Trim - Anyone have pics

Anybody have pics of this. I've seen the pillars done on older xb's and TC's, but this is a full window trim kit. Just kind of curious what it looks like.


Toyotaisme has one, got a message into him. Hoping he could post a picture.

its carbon fiber applique with a uv coating. So yeah it's a sticker with the puffy clearcoat to protect it.

This kit is different than others I have seen as it frames the whole window and does the top and sides all around. I'm not sure that would look right.

I sort of like it when they only do the b pillar.

Yeah, no prob. I saw it browsing and it reminded me of this thread. It doesn't look as puffy and gawdy as I thought, but I think I'm in your boat preferring the old style over the new. all the scion site has is this.... which looks more like the old right?

yeah I just think it will look weird entirely framed in. It it was just what they showed that picture I would be sold (maybe not for that price though ;-)

i saw it on the xB that was displayed at the Backstage event here in Chicago
the entire cf overlay has a much more finished upscale look to it than the single pillar ones of the old xB
