Been thinking of doing the window trim and would prefer a gloss look over matte. Are both parts similar in price im assuming the only difference is in finish?

Brabus209amg once posted that the gloss black finish cost less than the matte black ones but he didn't mention where he got the prices from tho.

Not sure, I believe I've seen it before though. It would look hot with carbon emblems, m5 mirrors with the lower portion carbon fiber.

Yep, but I'm not sure if he was aware of this option too. Not sure I'd want to the whole thing to be CF.

Do you have the carbon fiber pillars? My pillars are a little scratched up, not sure how it would look with the black trim.
