carbon parts arrived
After a bit of a delay carbon parts arrived.
![]() Here are some teaser shots. Quality is amazing albeit took a while to get made and get here. Photos are a mixture of Audi S4/RS4 and E90/91 splitter. Will post a photo after install. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I think they are copies of existing parts but they can make a carbon copy of anything you send them for a price
![]() They also had the usual things like spoilers, bonnets, mirror covers, etc. |

They do have the normal trims but I haven't seen that bit. I can ask.
Have you thought about wrapping that bit with carbon vinyl? I wouldn't be surprised if that's what it is. |

I can find many LHD ones but can't find a full carbon fiber RHD one that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Interested in having Mirror cap replacements and the full carbon fiber trim on an e90 LCI

Better late than never. After 5 months finally put the carbon splitters on. Looks good I think.

They are a carbon wholesaler in China. They did have a lot of other parts like spoilers, diffusers, mirror covers, hoods, eyelids.
Though I think the bigger parts the shipping would be a killer. It was $170AUS just for the small items we ordered and no weight in it. I'd say at least double for things like full width spoilers and rear diffusers. The other issue is there is not really any recourse if it doesn't fit properly. I think a full carbon M3 hood for E92 was about $650AUS then you still have to get it here and make sure it fits. I'd imagine shipping on something like that would be $600 or so. For some of the larger items it is probably better to get the off someone who imports them for a living unless you want to take the risk. We did have a few small parts that didn't quite fit. I'd say the splitters I installed are not a perfect fit but close enough for me and could be that my bumper has distorted a little over the years. Happy to make inquiries though if anyone whats anything else. I still wouldn't mind trying some carbon mirror covers and eyelids. |
