Using the tape that came with the pieces, placing the tape in appropriate positions, making sure everything is lined up and taking your time to install. You will have no idea that there is anything underneath unless you are looking specifically to see if it's an overlay.

The most important pieces are the center, cup holder door, and small above door trim. Making sure they are lined up perfectly so that don't touch. The carbon pieces and rounded over the edges making the gap between them smaller. I took my time and tested the door many times before committing to those installs. My cup holder door opens and closes with out touching, perfect like oem.
