Just saw them on a white 3 series today. Looked good.

Does anyone know if the finish on the OEM ones is glossy or closer to matt?

I hope the carbon fiber trim inside the car (for the X5M will fit in an 08).

It looks like the kits include the adhesive promoter and glue... just want to confirm 4 pieces per side...for the B , C pillar and window...

BMW OEM pillar covers seem to be only 3 per side.

These non-OEM pillar covers are 4 per side.

TaMbALoLoNg is an unknown quantity at this point
OEM CF pillar trims kits include: adhesive promoter w/ brush and alcohol pad cleaner. 8 pieces (4)per side for the E70 and 6 pieces(3) per side for the E53. Both shinny gloss finish, fits perfect and even have folks walk up to my car and complement it. I highly endorse the oem ones only.

Anyone seen them on a black X5 .. I'm not convinced they would look that good and could draw the eye to the carbon as it's clearly "different" from Black elsewhere... also they look a bit glossy ...
