Yup, the flash tends to blow out the carbon a bit. He's setting up a pro photoshoot shortly.

We just got another batch of custom parts for the show car, I'm particularly looking forward to the interior B and C pillars.




I'm still looking for people who just want the standard set so we can hopefully get some more installed pictures. Email me at matt@ocarbon.com if you'd like to set something up.

We're still building out our website and need some good installed pictures of these sets, so I can still offer the development discount.

Email me at matt@ocarbon.com if you'd like a quote.

All emails responded to. Still having trouble finding people willing to follow through on this, particularly because we haven't received any good installed pictures of the trim from the those we have sent the trim to.

If you'd like to get a discounted set and have a good camera setup (and will make an effort to get me some good installed pictures), email me at matt@ocarbon.com and I can get you a great quote on this trim.

We're still looking for more W211 owners who would like to have a set made. Shoot me an email at matt@ocarbon.com if you're interested.

Few pics of recent Benz pieces that have turned out very nice:

Which armrest piece? The sliding one?

We've found a way to do it, but it's rather expensive. So it really comes down to how much you want to spend.

Yes I have the sliding version. Not the butterfly version. How much for the complete trim kit and armrest?

Few pictures of a custom shift knob we just finished. Turned out really nice.

Hey guys,

Long time no updates, but I'm still looking for w211 owners who want sets made, particularly those who want some more custom pieces. We've got a lot of new colored fabrics in as well as some black ones with cool weaves.

I'd really like to find a few people who'd like to go the custom route so I can get some more installed pictures of the custom fabrics we offer, along with some of the more custom pieces. I'm willing to give some discounts to those who are willing to be a little more adventurous.

If you see anything you want or have any ideas and want more info, feel free to shoot me an email at matt@ocarbon.com and we can discuss your options.

A few recent pics of custom pieces we've done.

This is a 2x2 twill fabric with threads of reflective red running through it (it's also available in copper, gold, silver, blue and green). The pics don't do it justice:





We've also been doing quite a few standard colored kevlar sets, like these few in red, yellow, and orange:





Aluminum coated fiberglass too:


Some non-traditional black weaves as well:





Keep in mind we can also do things like mirror caps, door sills, center caps for wheels, you name it:

I'm totally game when I get my Benz back in January. I'd rather have CF than the wood trim. Especially since the clear is cracked on some of the trim. I might as well send it all in to you.

Hope you still have a good deal going on then. I need to get back from Afghanistan before I can tear the trim out of the car and send it off.

Everything looks great! I've seen your guys' work before on the CTSV Owners forum. Very nice!

Sounds good man. Even if we aren't still doing anything then, shoot me an email. I can always hook up those who serve. Thanks!

Not much action in this forum. You might get more interest in the W204 C63. Also, the W212 owners might be interested in this service as the W212 has a wood fading issue and dealers are 9-11months backorderd on replacements.

We have posts in multiple forums, W211 and W204 seem to be the majority of my customers.
