1st-Material is cheap. Right now you are blinded by the fact that you just put the kit on and that you spent a good deal of money for the kit. I loved the kit in the beginning too. I got many compliments. However, you have to realize that the compliments are from people who have only seen it once or twice in your car. I even defended my kit in this forum from people who warned me about it as I am doing now. After one month of seeing it everyday, you see how the kit doesn't fit like oem, and how cheap the material really is. If you look at one of your pictures by the interior door handle, you can see how uneven it is. One part of trim piece is glued down more than the rest of the trim piece. This is not your fault because the material is very soft and again cheap. The trim pieces feel like rubber and the trim kit as a whole has that rubbery look. If you look at the trim pieces at different angles you will see how uneven it is, how it doesn't fit perfect, and how much it sticks out.
2nd-Why in the world would you glue your pieces down? You are just ruining the interior. When I took my kit off it still left some marks which took me a while to get rid of. Glue is like 100x worse.
3rd-Why do they have a good refund policy. It's because they make so much profit off each trim kit they sell. They can afford to refund money because they already made tons of money off the kits they sold. They lose nothing because they will just sell the returned kit to the next sucker that orders it.
The company has a lot of positive feedbacks on ebay. However, some people leave positives for their return policy. They write "cheap material but refunded" so they leave a positive feedback. Combine this with 72 neutrals and 72 negatives. Hmmmmm.....and what are all the compliants about? Cheap material, doesn't fit like oem, etc. Maybe you can live with the kit but I definitely could not fool myself. If the other members want to try it out go order it. But just don't take off the back covering because then you can't return it.
