Anyone have experience with these? Half the price of RW Carbon.

fitment was good.
no predrilled holes.
used 3M VHB and not what they sent with 5 screws each side.
no issues yet.

They look very similar. I wonder if there are side skirts made of fiberglass or ABS? I found these Polish ones, which are basically "free" in comparison to the CF ones:

Nice. How is the quality? 1x1 or 2x2 weave?

Carbon "look" doesn't bode well haha

I have nothing in carbon on my space gray X5 as it would not be visible since CF won't create a contrast. I was looking for a side skirt but buying a CF set for 1K and then painting or wrapping it in black to match is silly.
