I read through about 10 pages of here and almost everyone complained about the silver screws...

Am I the only one who just used a sharpie on them before I installed it? It looks great....

I'll snap a picture later lol...

well the price went up on nigels site....is there really no one else to compete with him? Having a monopoly on a part sucks

Does anyone know of any other aftermarket parts that are similar to this?

Fett4Real · 01-26-2014, 09:31 PM

This is not an aftermarket part its an option in europe there are a few aftermarket ones and they all look like crap to me....they leave a hole in on place or another and dont flow like a stock part would

Yeah I know I'm looking for something similar to the OEM part but i see some aftermarket for half the price but agree they all look bad.

That's a good idea,
I just went to Home Depot and got black versions of the same screw ~$3
Part is listed someone on this thread

Beside the Toyota Euro Arm Rest.

The JDM DAMD Arm Rest is another good option.

Yea, and what is the justification for the price increase!? Was the product improved in some way? Has the cost of materials suddenly increased by $45 per item?

I would really love to know what justifies this much of a price increase!?
