New Rims...

iCarbon is hardly an ebay special, they aren't cheap... finding out what you thought was a BMW Performance diffuser is actually an iCarbon diffuser is like winning an iPad only to find out it's the wi-fi version not 3G.

Actually scrap that, iCarbon is crap I'll give you $100 for it

Nice wheels btw! One of the better looking OEM wheels out there imo

Oh no the trim is not wrapped, high quality CF. Proper gloss finish the lot. Guess ill just leave it!

Just checked it tho. I dont think it is iCarbon. As after googling theres has a logo set into the underside. This one does not have that!

Oh and I only have a wifi Ipad as well. My day just gets better!lol

the logo can be taken off is just a sticker.

but there are some ebay specials with the 3 fins as well though... With that said as Stu said don't worry about it.

The worst that can happen is that the iCarbon clear coat is rubbish and starts to yellow - mine has unfortunately

In terms of the interior it would more then likely be genuine or a one off custom made, i haven't seen anyone with a replicate of the OEM stuff.

ps. are you NOR or SOR, never seen your car before

I work in Canning Vale. Sometimes. Where there is a blue 120i & grey 130i in the car park. Big suburb though...
