Help installing retro-spec CF pieces.

Has anyone installed Retro-specs radio surround and shifter surround before? They just showed up and I am not sure what the best way is to install them.

They didn't come with clips? That's stupid if they didn't.

edit: I just looked, the radio surround screws on just like the factory stuff.

You have to mount the OEM metal bracket to the CF piece. I guess no one on here has installed one?

They do got some nice looking stuff, but as far as customer service goes they suck. I'm still waiting on a part they sold me from 3 years ago.

Yep I should have keep the wrong part they sent me too lol. It fit somewhat just not clean like it shoulda been. So since the part was on the website I sent it back thinking they sent wrong one. Then i found out he didnt have the mold for my car. I was gonna donate it to him but I broke it pretty bad and tossed it. So I'm stuck no warning cluster surround piece. Doesn't look too bad without lol.

It did take about a month for mine to show up. The shifter surround has 3/8 bolts in it for some reason
