Spent some time polishing
We got some new buffing pads and I’m very impressed with how the pieces are buffing out.
Started working on Audi B pillars…
I had a B5 S4 Avant customer who purchased a set of interior trim and wanted and wanted a little something extra for his exterior as well. He asked if I could do the B and C pillars for his S4.
It took us a little while, but we were able to get it sorted. These are full replacement parts made with OEM pillars, wrapped in 20oz 2×2 twill carbon fiber:
We’ve also started some B6/B7 pillars:
OEM pillars are stripped and prepped.
Epoxy is applied and the fabric is wrapped.
Extra fabric is removed.
Epoxy is spread on and built up. This will be cured in a week or so and ready to be sanded smooth.
I’ve even got a custom set of 5HS pillars in the works for my buddy Nick. He’s got a one of a kind set of 5HS carbon fiber interior trim. He’s also got a 5HS carbon fiber front plate too, hopefully we’ll see some installed pictures of that soon.
quick teasers of Rodolfo’s imola B5S4…
A few months ago I got in contact with a member on Audizine to see if he was interested in having my first custom yellow carbon/kevlar trim set in his car. He happily obliged.
I worked on his set and watched the progress he made on his car. So while it has taken a while to get to this point, I couldn’t be happier with having Rodolfo as the first official oCarbon sponsored vehicle. You can check out some more images of his new website emortal.co (it will be re-launching very soon).
Stay tuned for a proper photoshoot and a full rundown of mods.

Same progress on the B5 carbon kevlar sets…
Almost done adding resin to these pieces. After they cure I can start sanding them smooth.
More colored sets, this time for the B5…
I’ve done a few blue and red carbon kevlar sets for the B8 recently, so I figured I’d give a go at some colored B5 sets. These sets are in the beginning stages of production and will darken up considerably once the resin and clearcoat has been applied, but you can get a good idea of what they will look like in their raw form.
