jsut wondering if anyone has seen the aluminum vs the carbon fiber trim for the inside of the headlights? Which one do you think looks better on a carbon black car?

i believe the cf ones are aftermarket, while the aluminum ones are sold and installed by the dealer. Does anyone have a part number for those? I figured while im getting my headlight fixed, i can have them install my first mod! thanks.

The silver headlight trim looks pretty cool... but only on certain colors. I personally have carbon fiber in mine. I think it looks good with the steel gray...

Probably subjective but I would think Aluminum.

Either would look good ... I've seen both and think they both look pretty sweet.

I love the carbon fiber headlight trim, but with carbon black, the Tit. Silver is definitely more noticeable.

So I went with them:
