I'll save ya some time, you can't just pop the carbon trim off and replace it with glossy, the trim is plastic welded to the surround and to the best of my knowledge, nobody makes the whole unit in glossy carbon. Your only option is to get glossy carbon trim and fit it over the existing. I've seen a couple cars with Autotecknic pieces (check their site's M5 stuff) and they look extremely nice for a cover, it looked like they came it way.

You should be able to find pics on this site.

yes its, both are not good enough to be honest


some edges are really sharp. 3M sticker is not sticky enough ..

thought it will be better. however, the quality of the Carbon Fiber it self is very good
