Default TruFiber's TruCarbon Pieces

I was curious if anyone was using any TruFiber/TruCarbon carbon fiber parts from http://www.trucarbon.net/category_s/52.htm and had any real world opinions on them, aside from the fact that they cost a mint. I see the hoods being reviewed a lot but not the other pieces.

Specifically, I was looking at these parts:

TruFiber Carbon Fiber Side Skirts
Part # TC10025-XR4
Cost $699.00 (Pair)

TruFiber Carbon Fiber Side Skirt Splitters
Part # TC10025-LG37
Cost $399.99 (Pair)

TruFiber Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser
Part # TC10025-LG58
Cost $1,224.00

TruFiber Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser Splitters
Part # TC10025-LG56
Cost $149.00 (Pair)

TruFiber Carbon Fiber Rear Splash Guards
Part # TC10025-LG48
Cost $99.00 (Pair)

TruFiber Carbon Fiber Front Air Dam
Part # TC10025-LG55
Cost $849.00

I can personally attest to the quality of their products. My entire front end is CF, and I run their T2 Fenders. Unbelievable quality, amongst the best CF I've seen. I can't say enough about them and fully recommend their products.

They make GREAT quality products. All of their Carbon Fiber pieces are already clear coated I believe also as to prevent "yellowing" You get what you pay for as far as that is concerned. You are paying for quality pieces and good looking products!

My friend has all the pieces you listed on his car, and I have to say, no matter how many times I see it, I still drool over it! Your car will look AMAZING with all those pieces!

Damn, $1500 for that hood. Anywhere else I can get it cheaper?

Call me crazy but I just don't get it. I'm sure the quality is nice and all but the front quarters just look weird to me. The car loses all flow from the side. I dig the hood....but the quarters look terrible. Not popular I'm sure....but my 2 cents.

Can these parts be installed by a single person (me) in the back yard? From some videos I saw, it didn't look terribly challenging, though an assistant would probably be useful for getting the rear diffuser and front air dam on.

Apparently, installing the rear splitter requires removal of the bumper on a 2010+ Mustang.
