M Performance Carbon Fiber Door Sills

Has anyone picked these up yet? I'm curious about the quality, and if it's the real deal, or just simulated "carbon fiber."

At $118.54 each, that seems like a decent price for a little splash of carbon.

*BMW Parts Warehouse is the online parts store of BMW of San Francisco. Most things are not stocked locally, but the depot is in Stockton, CA, so they get the parts typically within a day or two, and then forward to the customer.

There are also M Performance floor mats. Some things are just beyond explanation.

Is the price for a pair, or each? ECS says "Sills" on the title. other websites say each for the same price.

Also says it fits G82. Is that a misprint for G42?

Weighted bar that slips in to the fabric and just drops between the seat and the sill

So not permanent can easily be tossed to the other side or put in a different car
