We’ve made a bunch of progress on these pieces in the last week or so. First and foremost, we got the bag system running multiple parts now. We’ve also made an upgrade to the molds that I’ll detail in a separate post because it is a neat little process. We’ve also had to deal with […]
We have a few more interior shots from the Adam’s Rotors feature on StanceWorks. A full, detailed write up can be found here: http://www.stanceworks.com/2011/02/rotors8/ This set was a custom made 9oz plain weave. I’ve only done a few sets in this particular fabric, so it’s pretty rare. The Adam’s Rotors logo embedded in the epoxy […]
Got a bunch of these in a little bit ago and have begun production on them. The goal will be to produce these in a 8 harness satin weave (8HS) so that they are similar to the OEM carbon atlas trim found in the B8 S4. We’re going to be doing these pieces differently than […]
D2 A8/S8 Trim Removal Guide Big thanks to Adam from Adam’s Rotors for taking the time to document his trim swap from wood trim to an oCarbon carbon fiber trim set. You can check out his sweet S8 project over on Audizine here. The man has proven yet again he knows how to build out […]
A few months ago Adam from Adam’s Rotors approached me about doing a custom set for his Project S8, which has been uniquely dubbed ROTORS8. At first I was a little hesitant, as the A8/S8 sets are large and cumbersome, but after talking with Adam for a bit I decided to press ahead. Working with him over […]
I’ve got another custom kevlar set that just got shipped out to a C5 A6 owner. He should be receiving it any day now, so hopefully we’ll get some installed pictures soon. Up next to be polished: Another custom C5 A6 set, but this time in red.
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 […]
and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. Now I just need to have someone local test fit them and I can start offering them. I’m going to try to offer them for between $400 and $600, but with cores it is going to be kind of tricky. I’m going to see about […]
Got these pieces clearcoated up today. I’ll probably wetsand them down a bit and do another few layers of clearcoat because I really want these pieces to look good. After sanding and before clearcoat. After the first few coats. Couple of detail shots on the vent piece. Few closeups of the MMI piece. Keep in […]
More and more B8 customers have been asking me if they could get vent and MMI pieces made in carbon fiber that matched the OEM carbon atlas trim. I had some extra cores laying around so I figured I’d give it a shot. The fabric I’m using for this is an 8 harness satin weave […]
With a little bit of resin on the pieces you can start to see their true color (especially compared to the pieces with just raw fabric). These pieces will be going in the oven for cure in the next few days and then sanded smooth. After that, they’ll be ready for clearcoat.
