  • exterior trim

    Is it possible to buy those plastic trims/edges that you see on ds3 racing models? Sorry if I don't use the propper naming.
    I can't seem to find any aftermarket options for that.
    Thanks

    You can get them direct from Citroen but they're very expensive.

        And not even real carbon fibre.

            According to Liam Doran, they're not. He gets his carbon custom made because it's cheaper and lighter (IIRC).

                Yeah we knew you meant that part of the trim on the Racing grijs It is ridiculously expensive from Citroen, we're talking hundreds and hundreds of pounds hence my shock that it's not actually carbon fibre

                      That was what I thought too Shiro - I seem to recall seeing a pic of a broken piece and it certainly looked like carbon fibre, perhaps Liam Doran can just get his made cheaper

                        Depends most of the Racings carbon fiber pieces are regular DS3 plastic pieces that have a layer of carbon fiber applied to it. I am not sure how the front spoiler lip and wheel well lips are constructed.

                          I did find this http://www.ledltuning.com/index.php?...mid=72&lang=en
                          That colour though, it does mention "ABS, black, easy fitting, parts are not painted!"

                            I can't see any pics on the work laptop - I'm guessing the colour is offensive ?
