    DONT BUY THEM!!!! I am fed up with mine. Your supposed to lay them directly over the stock stuff, I did, but the stock stuff is bubbling up so..... still looks like ****. I guess the only 2 remedies are carefully cut the edges and super glue everything or buy Valences Center console replacement.

    Absolutely, you should not apply these on top of an already-bubbled panel. The adhesive is very strong, and I don't know how you'd remove them without damage.

    If I were installing them, I'd go the "easy-off" route on the stock panels just to clean them up -- no need to make them pretty. Then, use a fine mist of dish soap an water on the panel before applying the carbon fiber fasica. That will allow you to easily slide/reposition the CF panel before the water evaporates and the glue gets super-sticky.

    Just my 3 drachma.
