James, I have these but the switch panels are the rubbery plastic variety not the painted metal surface that looks like veneer, as I think you may know.
I think you're planning to coat them with a carbon fibre look so not sure if they are suitable.

Hi Andrew can you post a picture off what you have?

This is the set i ordered but those x4 trim pieces were not inclulded sadly - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-A8-D...72.m2749.l2649

This is what i need and the rest really - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AUDI-A8-D....c100290.m3507

correct i am carbon fibre wrapping all the trim, once a set is done, i will have another full set of trim that can also be wrapped

Here you go, the four unwrapped switch panels in this picture (ignore the interior light which is not part of the trim set, though I have that too).

The set you bought probably doesn't have the switch panels because they are requested much more than the other items.

Real carbon or vinyl?

RS6 7th November 2017 12:34 PM

I think for real carbon it has to be dipped or treated, so these will be be professionaly wrapped gloss carbon effect instead, this should work well enough

Andrew that looks just the job, are the clips ok underneath, no damage etc?

if you could sell me x4 parts

All good, I removed them (very carefully!) from my current S8 myself. See PM sent today. :cool:

The colour is called Twist by the way. Will you want them with or without switches and ashtrays?

Close-up high-res pictures attached, from above and below.

The rears also include the lower grab handle shells if you want them, not sure why I ended up with those!
Both those lower shells have small cracks in (highlighting markings visible in photo) but still fit fine and securely.
(I think they are particularly prone to damage due to the force needed to fit/remove so they may actually be better than yours; the front ones are easier.)

Will probably need everything with them switches and ashtrays looks just the job +++
