Really sorry for the delay, but we encountered a lot of difficulty in the past few weeks and caused the process to slow down.

But trust me, once the finally product comes out, it won't disappoint anyone here.

One question for you guy, do you guy have i-drive for your car? Since the trim we are doing now is not for i-drive cars. Also, anyone of you here use the coin tray?
The reason I am asking is because I am thinking about covering the cointray with carbon fiber, so you guy see more carbon fiber. I don't use that little tray myself and would like to have some input from your guys.

Please do not lose the coin tray. Storage in the car is limited enough. I think to lose it would be a strong deterrant to sales. The safest play is to produce a straight stock replacement. I don't think I would buy it in any other configuration.

Hopefully you will produce trims that fit car with iDrive?

The center console piece we are manufacturing now is the non-idrive version. Later, we will produce the center piece that will fit idrive. As for the tray, how about tray in Carbon fiber instead of the stock rubber tray?

We are currently working on the non-idrive trim(the only different is the center console piece). We are expected to release the final produce in 2-4weeks. And after than, we will start working on the idrive compatable center console piece. Then manuel transmission center console piece.

This would work for me if you can make it fit correctly. I am really looking forward to seeing the final product. It really sounds like you will have a lot of business off this forum. Again, thank you for all your efforts.

The factory is working on the first 10 sets to test out the fitment. It will be done in around 2-4 weeks (i know, you are all anticipating for this and have been waiting for so long, here again, I want to apologize about the delate). Once we assure the quality and the fitment of the trim, we will start taking orders and begining the production of the trim.

I promise, once the first 10 sets are out, I will install it on my car and post pictures of the trim. Maybe we can sell the first 9 (1 of the 10 is mine) to those of you who can't wait

you guys interested in the first 10 sets? Well, we will definitely test fit it to ensure that the fitment is perfect before we put them for sale if anyone of you who are interested in picking them up. Theoertically, if the fitment is perfect, the later production trim will just be the same as the first 10 sets.

As all of you know, it's better to throw away 10 sets than 200 sets. That's the reason behind manufacturing only 10 sets. As a result, after we test fit the first 10 sets and assure that they will fit, there is no worry about buying those sets for those of you who can't wait.

Once again, I am very sorry about the delay, I am very anxious to get the trim too. We keep you guys update. Thank you for all of your patience.
