			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve done a few BMW sets in the past, mostly e46 and e90 sets, but now we&#8217;re about halfway done with our first M5 set.  I&#8217;m really happy with how it is turning out so far, particularly the shifter piece.  I can&#8217;t wait to finish this set up and see how it looks installed.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3059" title="blog-2122" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2122.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3060" title="blog-2113" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2113.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /></p>
<p>We start with an e60 wood core that gets sanded down to make room for the extra material of the carbon fiber and epoxy.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3061" title="blog-2114" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2114.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3062" title="blog-2115" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2115.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /></p>
<p>After laying the pieces out on the fabric (we went with an <a href="http://ocarbon.com/blog/tag/20oz/">upgraded 20oz 2&#215;2 twill</a> for the M5), we carefully cut it out to the appropriate sizes.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3063" title="blog-2116" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2116.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3064" title="blog-2117" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2117.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /></p>
<p>We then mix up some bonding epoxy and apply it to the pieces.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3066" title="blog-2123" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2123.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3067" title="blog-2124" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2124.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3068" title="blog-2125" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2125.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3069" title="blog-2126" src="http://ocarbon.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/blog-2126.jpg" alt="" width="710" height="533" /></p>
<p>A few hours later, the fabric has been applied and the first major step on the trim is completed.  This week, we&#8217;ll start adding epoxy to the pieces to give it the gloss and depth that most people associate with carbon fiber.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Big thanks to my friend Joey at <a href="http://www.euroaddiction.net/forum/">EuroAddiction</a> for being the first to get some parts made for his 911 GT3 as well as Angela Pappas at <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/angela_pappas/">Fl@sh Photography</a> for taking the time to get some pictures done for us.</p>
<p>These parts were made with a custom <a href="http://ocarbon.com/blog/tag/20oz/">20oz 2&#215;2 twill</a> fabric, which uses almost 4 times as much individual strands of carbon fiber than a standard weave.  More strands equals a thicker, tighter weave.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve got more parts in the works for this car, so keep your eyes open for those soon.  If you&#8217;re interested in having parts made for your Porsche, fill out our <a href="http://ocarbon.com/quote">custom quote</a> form and we can get you setup.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>if anyone is interested.</p>
<p>These sets just need to be polished and could be shipped out the day after payment has been made.  Good opportunity to get a set that is ready to go without the normal 3-4 week lead time.</p>
<p>These sets were done in an upgraded <a href="http://ocarbon.com/blog/tag/20oz/">20oz 2&#215;2 twill fabric</a> (the same fabric that is found in the OEM RS4 carbon fiber trim).  This upgraded fabric is normally $100 extra, but I&#8217;ll sell these two sets at the regular price.</p>
<p>Email me at matt@ocarbon.com if you’re interested in picking this up or if you have any questions.</p>
<p><strong>Price: </strong>$600</p>
<p><strong>Shipping:</strong> Free</p>
<p><strong>Core deposit:  </strong>$300 – this is refundable.  Once you install the carbon fiber trim, you can return your original trim back to us and the $300 will be refunded in full.</p>
<p><strong>Pieces included:  </strong>Full 6 piece set, including 4 doors, 1 dash with quattro badge, and 1 shifter that fits both auto and manual vehicles.</p>
