Not a big fan of the aluminum trim either. I would only swap for carbon atlas or aluminium beaufort black which is available in Europe.

Dealing with the dent issue now. Frustrating...

I have a us address (us military). Bought the atlas carbon fiber trim on the allegro.pl site for 950 USD and had it delivered to me.

You're the second person that has had no problems buying from that site and having it shipped to the US. Might have to give it another look. Thanks

Yeah - The site has good deals IMHO. I am waiting for a Bang and Olfusen system to become available. I saw 2 there before; both around 1500 USD. I havent been able to find them since.

I recommend using Chrome because it translate the site and the seach should have "Audi 4G0" in it

If looking to make a statement, this back-lit, translucent finish might be an eye-catching trim option (barf bag optional):

Based on your experience I did order the set of CF trim for about $1K from a seller on allegro.pl in December. Unfortunately it hasn't arrived. I don't think I've been scammed per se, but the combination of international mail system + holidays + US customs = lost package.

Sorry to hear that although if its slow boated across it will take up to eight weeks. The Polish mail service has tracking and you should be able to track the package as well. I truly hope u didn't get ripped off but I have had success multiple times.

Thanks...USPS told me mail is always by air not boat but who knows...according to the Polish tracking, the package was in fact mailed and moved through the system, but no data since then. I asked seller to contact his post office. The saga continues...

UPDATE: Good news, my trim pieces finally arrived. You called it, shipping took 8 weeks! Hopefully I'll finish the install this weekend.
